on the way to next world

If I have something to show
they'll throw in a lump of money
profit used for another investment
if I am worthy
isn't it exciting?

Not exactly suffering from memory loss
restricted to an old people's home
can't run with the money there
wait a minute
I would have human worth

Otherwise I might be a poor investment
low on the return
unworthy
burden to the family
looking for a shortcut out
would they throw the money in
or pull the plug?
how could I think of such a thing!


Don't want to sweat the small stuff
if I am worth it
profitable investment
don't want to think of being a bad return
burden on family or friends
unable to take of myself

Life
