Mr. Eartle Must Die On TimeA Poem by Earl SchumackerEqual rights and voting rights for the one turned into manyMr. Eartle Must Die On Time
As expected, Mr. Eartle will die on time or sooner We understand India has over 1.3 billion people None of them are followers of Eartle or his turtle wax But unlike the soon to be deceased man from America The certificates in turtle wax will grow on in perpetuity
He will leave behind a fortune in computers made in India That will also continue to rise in interest and of interest to The aforementioned over populated place already mentioned Where people and profits speak a language more in tune with you And if that is not enough to warm the cockles of your heart
Eartle owns really real estate not fake Three mansions on a lake if not mistaken All in the United States of America Not to be confused with India at all
His properties continue to be of interest to a band of hobos Family members who are hardly members of the human race More like viruses which came into existence as mistakes As precursors to life formed from the beginning of creation To latch on to you or other living organisms to exist at all
Mr. Eartle must die today so he can vote in 27 states So what if his properties will be occupied by viruses People from Texas who know what's best for them Who smile so it must be time to go
He will die today to save more space Is it wrong to be invisible? There is nothing nice about being alive Showing ID can be a hassle You can cast more votes when dead Because no one sees you in the booth
Let an angel pull a lever in your name Even if it is Eartle not from India Good citizens never go away Constitutions change but not constituents They vote at many places when they are dead
No one ever really dies these days Everything is computerized And it is illegal to discriminate against an alien Such as spirits or a ghost Entities who have every right to vote
