Eventually We Will All Die, Feb 28th,2011
And the older you get, the closer you get to your eventual death,
And it can’t be avoided until you take your very last breath,
But don’t think about it and maybe it will just go away,
Unfortunately that’s not true either but you still can’t overstay.
Your dog can get euthanasia at the vet’s and no questions asked,
He can lie down and peacefully die and no one is aghast,
But you can’t have assisted suicide or your doctor goes to jail,
They take this so serious; they might not even give him bail.
You don’t read about this because it’s kept out of the press
Just like binding national referendums but did I digress?
You are not worthy of euthanasia but you don’t know
As far as they are concerned, you are just a no-body, John Doe.
