Call the Marines
Things exist,
That aren’t for sissies –
Like old age.
——————————
Early, Slow Evolution
No clotting –
I’m bleeding to death;
Need QUICK change!
——————————–
Likewise, The Human
The blood leech
Taking, as if due.
Never gives.

How true, particularly the first one.
I really like the second one Dennis 🙂
‘Call’: a tribute to the great Bette Davis! Excellent. ‘Evolution’: *always* too slow for those needing it most! You grabbed it in that final twist, of course. ‘Human’: I dare not name any names, but Boy Howdy, you nailed it–we all know them!!
