QUIET LIKE A SHEEP …. JAN 4TH, 2015
BY
JAMES BREDIN
Our high-up politicians sometimes look down from above,
They've been told that doctor-assisted-death is something they can't love,
Like recall or binding referendums -- words never spoken,
Media mogul silence on these two subjects is never broken.
You can ask your candidate what he/she thinks about this?
And in case he/she doesn't know; tell him/her about the Swiss,
Or the five US states or the province of Quebec that have it now,
Though this is serious stuff but there's no need to cause a row.
But it is a graphic illustration of what we need to change,
So that, If you are going to die in pain; you can rearrange,
But you wont read about this in the papers so go back to sleep,
And don't mention this poem and be quiet like a sheep.
