Every Strip Mall Has A Drugstore


With warm winters, no State Income Tax
And innumerable discounts for seniors,
Southern Florida has been a magnet 
For retirees from the northeast.

They come here to wait,
And write emails to friends
Who are yet to concede
To golf and Mahjong.

Some of the friends who lured
Them south are gone
While others seem to have constricted 
Their lives to health concerns.

If the plan is to wait to die
It makes sense to find a comfortable chair.
