Alzheimers-[ No ''Body'' Should Become A ''soul''Like This]

When do the moments begin to move
on wings of hours veiled and skewed;
and what to say to th' frightened old man
who could not remember, couldn't understand
that the number to call for 911
were those 3 simple digits, still he had to run
to the phone, dial'O', (and excuse my pun)
but he asked for the number for 911.


When will we finally just say 'NO' to:


.................'ALZHEIMERS'.................? ! ! !

Let the labs and clinics do their thing
for as a Roman Catholic, ''Practicing'',
I cannot conceive ''The Emmanuel''
wanting HIS children to die in a shell
on a cruel, dimented ''Pilgrimage'-
we creations HE made in HIS image.

Think about it, yes, one day it may be
some of us...and when memories-
begin to cloud, leaving us scared
that our once sprite Brains may be impaired.

When we ask our doctors if our minds will unfold
will they honestly be able to answer, 'HELL NO'!
Time that Medical Research, Doctors in kind
stop this sad parade of ''Death by the Mind''


We will all leave this earth young or old, poor 'n rich
But No ''Body'' should become a ''Soul''.....like this.
