Immortality
A pound of gold isn’t as satisfying as a cup of water,
The effort inside can be enthusiastic but the pains are traumatic,
Forever and ever isn’t the reciprocal of immortality,
Neither familiarity with love would make it immortal,
Longevity is a gift not a treasure,
Death resistance is never pills for eternity,
Moral doctrine is the only recipe for long life
Quest for Trinity creates a trivial dietie,
Immortality is a tale for creator not creation.
