When Will You and I Die? July 9th, 2012
By
I am concerned about the schedule of my upcoming death,
What day, what week, what month, what year, will I take my last breath?
And poor Sue Rodriguez; how she was treated before she died,
Our government did nothing as if they couldn’t decide.
It’s was a graphic demonstration of our attitude to death,
As if death can be avoided and all we have to do is forget,
Therefore something is wrong that our leadership should put right,
Or maybe someone in Ottawa should just turn on the light.
Eventually you and I will be part of our history,
But how we get there from here, is still a bit of a mystery,
We are going to die, and maybe in great screaming pain,
But with euthanasia, we could avoid the pain and don’t complain.
