Life Cycle or Car


Dolly the sheep had a wonderful start
No mother or father created by art
Craftsmen were clever they knew they would gain
A sex free creation! Now there's a new game!

To carry it further we all would do well
We all could look forward to life without hell
Each one a diamond no thieves and no crooks
Just brainy do gooders with heads in their books

So where lies the shortfall, where can I begin?
With everyone made an identical twin.
No need to worry, one size fits all!
Hey wait a minute, whose name do you call?

Don't make no difference they're all much the same
Peter, Matilda or Danny McCain
They all do the same job all look the part
Where does that leave affairs of your heart

No testing no trials it's easy you say
Not even the chance of loosing your way
You just pair off equal….. any will do
How totally boring your mate looks like you

No reason to worry when all are the same
This could get tricky when playing a game
Worse is to come which partner does what?
Your both so damn equal it just matters not

No reason for living, you're easily replaced
While living your life in some body encased
Made not by nature created at will
No-one need love you if you should fall ill

But wait… no diseases that you can befall
The bloody creators eliminate all
So what will become you as time passes by
Life's so bloody boring you can't even die

Design will not let you they've thought about that
Maybe recycle you could be a cat?
Fraid not they're below us, small brains and no soul
So how in the hell to get out of this hole?

Lets face it you've had it, you're made by design
To up and keep going long after your time
So lets keep it simple and stay as we are
And leave all the “Boffins” perfecting the “Car”

"Life's so bloody boring you can't even die "

Well, I can't say I've tried everything, but I do consider it the last and ultimate "rush".

As for coming back as a cat?

*shudder*

If you think humans are mean to each other, try being a cat for nine lives!

It took me millenia to get over that.



Loved this.
