Life is truth, it will kill us. Dead is about as serious as life gets.


Poem Artwork

Take a fish out of water
he will die evidently
so goes us humans eventually
We are like fish in a bowl
no water but air
too live oxygen has got
to be there
It can't be anywhere
Its got to be in the bowl
or we will certainly fold

So many mess with their
breathers on their face
stuffing cigarettes in the space
No smoking is the answer
it's better than risking cancer
But us humans take risky
chances
with almost all of our romances

Of course dad practically
suffocated to death
and smoking didn't destroy his health
He was stopped up with
too much cholestrol and fat
Hardening of the arteries that
killed him dead as he sat

So if one thing don't
another will
Life so resembles a fish kill

OPM,

How true, we know what's bad for us, but we do it anyway, perhaps my monther-in-law gave the reason while she was dying of emphezma, "I'm going to die anyway, so I'll smoke all I want" I'm many justify their bad habits with those words. Great write.
