When Dying Hungry
| If it don't matter how a person dies As long as he dies with dignity Let's burn the corn fields Set fire to the food chain And smile as we lay dying. If we get hungry or thirsty let us remind ourselves of Terri And how she lay helplessly dying in the name of 'dignity' If it don't matter how death takes us by the hand Let's change all the pro-life laws of our great land! If it don't matter how people die And starvation/dehydration is a beautiful way to meet ones maker in the sky..... Let's cut poor counties off from our food supply. If it don't matter that in a nation where the right to life was once a part of liberty Why do so many cling to life and fill themselves up with food and drink to keep from feeling dignity? When it no longer matters that our fellow human being is being forced to go unfed,and is hungry. When it no longer matters that those with disabilities are human beings too. Then.......soon nothing will matter because there will be no one left to care. If it don't matter how a person meets his maker.... let's forget about human compassion and in the name of death with dignity all humanity take hands and pray that God won't send no food our way. -Janice Sanford http://www.thestarlitecafe.com/poems/101/poem_8361652.html
