The More The Birthdays... Poem by Ranil Gunawardena

sickness
tiredness
bodily difficulties

wrinkles
rashes
skin diseases

osteoporosis
arthritis
stay in one place

diabetics
pressure
heart attack

constipation
incontinence
suffer in silence

long sight
short sight
no sight

poor hearing
louder please
deaf

heavy weight
bodily weight
ohh the weight of the body

Everybody
nobody
alone

day of death

game over!
what a game!
game again!
