We Leave this World the same way we came in it

Stacy R Dran Dran 1969 (Pennsylvania)

Free verse
We leave this world the same way we came in it
Not knowing what we are doing
And not wanting to listen
We are bald and fat
And without any teeth
And the more we laugh
The more we pee
While our diapers are being changed
Because they reek
We always make a fuss
And are picky with what we eat
And no matter all the things
We could do for fun
All we want to do is sleep
So the moral of the story
Is no matter how big or how small
We leave this world the same way
We came in it
But love gets us through it all

About this poem

I was thinking about how funny and similar things are with babies and and old folks
