In the Year 2215

In the year 2215, we'll all be dead So why should we fret and worry our heads What will be, will be Can't do a thing, you and me So just mosey along and don't wet the bed © Jack Ellison 2015

I like this poem a lot. My perception is that it goes a little bit into monarchy when they would behead you for doing crimes. Good job, as you comment on my poems I shall comment on yours as well.
