BETWEEN POMPOUS AND BUREAUCRATS … OCT 16TH, 2013
BY
JAMES BREDIN
The new Baby Boomer generation is not pleased about this,
They’re getting closer to death and this cannot be dismissed,
Despite the pompous preachers who tell them to kneel and pray,
And accept the pain of death that may arrive any day.
And do not think about the sin of assisted suicide,
Even if Lou Gehrig’s disease pain should coincide,
Because that’s what happened to Sue Rodriguez many years ago,
She wanted death with dignity and the Supreme Court said no.
Switzerland has a DWD system but it’s very far away,
And death with dignity is expensive which could be hard to pay,
So Baby Boomers are caught between reality and aristocrats,
Maybe even between the pompous and the bureaucrats.
