I have been hearing lately, that we can live forever.
With conviction I can say, “We have never been closer!”
Middle class budgets are figuring eternity into ennui in installments.
Families are around tables discussing their options.
Move your focus, from object to object in quick saccade.
Regimens of exercises are highly recommended.
Nonsense! Did you know that even a butterfly lives a lifetime?
Traveling salesmen will sell immortality out of orange tweed suits.
Screen Sci-fi Hollywood films to practice your instincts.
Give the children vintage butter beans, to distance a past.
Children and Parents will be allowed to act the same.
In the name of fairness, eternal life will be prescribed at 35.
It involves the least amount of effort and difficulty.
We will laugh at these memories and forget how far we have come.
