Paul Warren Poet Ballad

The First Head Transplant

The first head transplant will be in December
When a head removal will be a life extender
It will be a very complicated procedure
With 150 doctors as team members

It would seem all you need is a donor body
All tested as not so worn out and shoddy
Then take this miracle of modern medicine 
And know it will be something to see in the end

So this is the next miracle of modern medicine
When you could wear out bodies at your life’s end
And maybe a designer body on order for you
To change at the right time will be ordinary too.
