Unfathomable

Vaccines?  
They're for the weak-minded,
spineless wimps.
Mass hysteria
fomented by big-pharma.
Global pandemic?
Clearly, a leftist fairy story  
like Peter Pan.
Besides, longevity
runs in my family.
Grandpa lived 104 years.  
I'll admit,
I'm a tad needle-squeamish.
What's that?  
What about my loved ones?
I have but one.
Oh and I'm a lucky son-of-a-gun
Just this morning
I walked 13 times
under a ladder,
on broken mirror shards,
whilst screaming,
At the top of my lung
Macbeth! Macbeth! Macbeth!
Much to the consternation  
of the black cat cradled in my arms.
And I'm right as rain
I do take precautions.
Why every morning  
I right-religiously take
equine steroids with a shot of bleach.
And I feel grrrrreat!
Accept for the persistent cough
…and tasting and smelling, overrated.
 
(In garbled whisper)
Excuse me doc…
before you do
what you're gonna do,
with that tube,
I'll take that vaccine now.

Author's Note
Sometimes I just have to express my thought s with gallow's humor. I am frustrated and saddened that so many of our fellow life travellers' lives continue to be cut short.
It seems these days that stubborn pride and selfishness trump common sense and love.
