Countdown
by Tony Thorne MBE

Rated "G" by the Author.
Attention hypochondriacs!

COUNTDOWN

As we grow older

We lose our brain cells

Some doctors say

I can feel mine going

With my memories

Throughout each day

It's traumatic

To contemplate this

Being so cursed

Why can't the cells

That do my worrying

Go first?
