Putting it off

They urge us to eat well and exercise
So swallow mini aspirins every night
Since we have the choice to live or die

Money is quite handy  for good life
I might win the lottery at first try
They urge us to eat well and exercise

But poverty though relative ignites
The pain of  being seen as people slight
Do we have the choice to live or die?

What is illness has to be defined
What sugar level is the danger point?
They urge us to eat well and exercise

We swallow drugs and meditate online
We do  our work, ignore our painful joints
Should  we have the choice  on when we die?

With the holy oils shall we annoint
The living and the dead   whom love has caught
They urge us to eat well and exercise
Does even God  have mercy when we die?

One thought on “Putting it off

  1. A very nice poem. I see that you have health and fitness and moiney on your mind, and i hope you are well in regard to each of them. I also hope you are happy, of course.

    I want to tell you that yours is the first Weekly Digest I look for each week, and am never disappointed
