Selling A Kidney (poem)
By Tim Bagwell
[Printer-Friendly Version] Forty years after Woodstock,
forty years after combat in Vietnam,
I'm giving serious thought to it-
selling a kidney to a sick millionaire
to fund the rest of my life.
Hell, I have two. Why not?
Interesting: Would I sell an arm?
A leg? A testicle? Probably,
if the price was right.
That was the problem with Vietnam.
I sold myself too cheaply.
-Tim Bagwell
