A cell at a time
By Autotomy
Death comes in many sizes One cell tall One cell thick One cell wide One-cell sick That’s all it takes One disfigured cell To end your life Shall it be heaven or hell? Why play safe? Go have fun! Enjoy the wonders of this world, before you pass on Take time to treasure a moment, and hold on to it tight To keep you happy, as you pass on through the light You might get better You could end up worse Take on the side effects Of those horrible drugs Anything to prolong This pre-existing love for this thing known as life As the treatments begin You look to the past For times of laughter… To hide from What lies in your path… Health through poison Pain for pleasure Death for life Longevity through decay That is how I live through mine The enemy awaits For the chance to multiply I do not wish to die Yet I already know this shall be my demise One cell at a time A Cell At A TimeI started to think of death and how I will probably die. In a hospital bed...alone...getting treatment...hoping for the best yet knowing that death is coming around the bend, and me smiling and waveing my middle finger at it just like I greeted life Written January 18th, 2002 © on Jan 18 2002 02:52 PM PST 10 • 0
