Countdown
by Tony Thorne MBE

Friday, August 22, 2008
Rated "G" by the Author.

Attention hypochondriacs!

COUNTDOWN

As we grow older

We lose our brain cells

Some doctors say

I can feel mine going

With my memories

Throughout each day

It's traumatic

To contemplate this

Being so cursed

Why can't the cells

That do my worrying

Go first?

Tony Thorne MBE
