Totally spot on... beware of what you wish for! :)) I think it might be called "genetic engineering" or "cloning" or something... I think the "perfect version" of me would be even more insufferable than the failing prototype! Think, on balance, I'd rather sit and "pick my spots"... it at least gives me something to do! And do you REALLY want to know what would scare me the most about this idea? It's the fact that there will ALWAYS be a "perfect someone else" who will beat MY perfection hands down... so, what cure then for the "perfectly formed" ego, huh?! I have REALLY got off on this poem, Ron. It's... perfect! WTG, lol Kate xx

I was laughing so hard after having finished reading your poem. Lol! Ron, that is so true and too funny! Lol! After reading it, I realized just how pathetic we have become. We want a miracle drug - for all the ailings in our messed up lives) and if it doesn't work, someone has to take the blame. Great one ... lolol!!!

God bless, Ron!

Comical yes with the last line, but I see also a statement of fact below the humor...between the lines I see you wishing for a dream unfulfilled...(sorry if I misinterpreted) Find Peace, Ed & Rufuz

We all want that miracle drug, and when it doesn't work, we sue the drug company. We have created a no-lose situation, haven't we. The world just keeps getting stranger. I am waiting for that pill that melts away body fat so I can eat all the good stuff again. The one that gives great abs without crunches would be nice too. Great job, Ron. A really fun read.
Take care,
Sherry
