just one more day

Sinews and cartilage and bones and liquid this useless air bag and thumping engine will one day become rigid eyes and ears and mouth and soul a gooey mess of synapses its use takes a permanent  toll strength and toil and sweat and grit we can all live forever just for a bit failure and faulty parts hospital visits and mental floss damn doctor sold me a dud heart so eat an apple a day and keep your heart in a cage to push death away just one more day
