Pill Time

by George Hoerner

yes, of course
raise the bar
to heights
only those
with wealth
can attain

make minor
changes
to maintain
infringement laws

reduce the age
of poor death
55 sounds
like a good age
for the poor

and lengthen
the age
of wealth
and maybe 105
for the wealthy

there must be
profit in life
and death so
promise a
peaceful passing
with newest
pill but don’t
make it
too expensive

Sometimes the pill is too big and bad to swallow, sometimes too small to see, but we can hope that the one that is produced will not have too many bad side effects. Clever and thought provoking, George. Thanks.
