Life Pill
The pill of life would cost, I fear,
Much more than I can pay,
But I still hope there will be one
For saving lives some day.
A pill that conquers all disease
And takes all pain away,
I know, somewhere, some super brain,
Strong willed enough to stay
Is working on this superb pill.
I hope there’s no delay,
For I’m fast falling all apart
Like fabled one-horse shay.
