OLD LADY OBITUARIES … MAY 24TH,
2013
BY
The obituaries of some
of these old ladies are quite a show,
Pictures of gorgeous
young faces from eighty years ago,
Fashions were different
because they were, way back then,
Those then beautiful
fashions will never be seen again.
It’s very sad in a way
because we’re all locked in time,
From nursery rhymes to
obituaries in one long lifetime,
And we can’t make
preparations to schedule the event,
The religious tell us,
it’s heaven or hell; assent or decent.
The obituaries should
be a message, that we have no control,
And death with dignity
should be our eventual goal,
Unfortunately they’ve
made the law, that this is illegal,
So we may die in pain
instead of soaring like an eagle.
