Each subsequent process of cell division
I.e. mitosis sans the biological parlance
Erodes chromosomal cap
re: telomere if u can envision
at some juncture senescence prevails –
apoptosis no chance
To prevent this natural degradation
and the alternate decision
Per opting to bail from etching
chronological age – averse at a glance
To this mortal male,
who decries that death breed’s frisson
Thus disallowing healthy discussion
once end of the figurative dance
Delivers the curtain call on existence –
where grim reaper jeers with derision
At attempts to thwart cessation of life
whereby scientists seek to en-hance
Longevity – even exhuming the grateful dead
and experimenting with incision
To rewind expired meter fostering
demise without spectacles
after staying alive – with lance
A lot chock full of chemical concoctions
to revive corpse as the ultimate mission
Yet, any effort to transcend
genetic bulwark
engendered from bulge in pants
In tandem with merging with ova –
based on each coupling favored position
Ought not be tampered
with lest havoc t’will be
rent asunder and rants
From rabid quest per course ala collision
Inscribed within DNA blueprint
from extinct cousins of uncles and aunts
Prepping monster
to burst from Ray Kurzweil laboratory
Whereby to halt recalcitrant
zombie spells FRUITION!
