A SLOW ROWING BOAT ….     JAN 2ND, 2015

BY

JAMES BREDIN

Your hospital end-of-life treatment may not be one bit nice,

Especially if you don't die and have to come back twice,

And if you do die and you are not pleased, you can't complain,

It's as though your body and soul have gone down the drain.

And doctor assisted death is not allowed by the upper echelon,

Even if you go to court and have a long High Court session,

And we are not allowed referendums because they too are banned,

They will not allow death with dignity and they think this is grand.

None of this makes sense because no one knows what to do,

We are going to have an election soon so get in the queue,

But no one mentioned doctor assisted death so how will you vote?

Is it windy out there and does this feel like a slow rowing boat?
