On aging, which I am.


Omeprazole
a statin and metformin
I take them all
despite the label’s warnin’

And if I die
from pancreas or liver
I’ll blame the doc and
it’ll be too late to forgive her

Damn the genes
the ones that start with G
The other ones
are looser now at least

I won’t be hard
to carry to my grave
Just think of all
the sympathy you’ll save
by saying that it’s my fault
I should have eaten better
I should have gotten more exercise
Thanks for your concern
we value your opinion
but why’d you feed me all those pies
