Sense Sonnet - Tickler

Here's Foretelling

Louis the 11th of France
Was way into astrology.
Whoever foretold, took the chance
That they might become history,
If Louis was displeased at all
By what he was told was foretold.
One astrologer got the call.
Louis wanted to know how old
He would be before he would die.
The astrologer thought hard, then said
Louis' death would happen thereby,
When the astrologer was found dead.

So nothing fatal would occur,
Louis jailed the astrologer.
