some infinity gene having mutated inside us
stunting the aging process
no degradation
forever young
i think of all the ambulances
that have wailed up and down the main street
with their ear piercing regularity
tolling someone's distress
someone's expiration maybe
a lifetime
just isn't enough
it is a strange thing now
to hear the sirens sounding from the avenue
knowing they are for you
