The day will come when I do not

rise from my bed but stay in that spot

perchance to dream if not to wake

a heavy slumber I will never shake.


Some say that science may soon bring

such longer life as yet unseen

two hundred years with health unchecked

may be their goal but should we expect

the splitting of the human race in two

the sub class just like me and you

the wealthy buying decades to find

some other ways to fleece mankind


For sure it wont be for those on tick

their present way of life will stick

live for the moment, die for the cause

of fighting some ludicrous wars,

no point in fixing you to live all time

in your job you may perish any time

Just a small selected band

with so much wealth they own the land.


And by that I do not mean their homes

but all the countries where they roam

our mortgages give them power indeed

we're trapped with them until we're freed.


But by that time our age is such

we will not trouble them too much,

we'll trundle round the shops and chat

about the smallest this and that.


Brown days of muddled thinking mask

the real purpose of their task

the papers fly some silly tales

to draw attention to the man from Wales


Anything to bury deep

the truth until we all do sleep

perchance to dream if not to wake

a heavy slumber we will never shake
