With Many

With many middle aged to ageing people tracing of family history is the in thing Suppose in a way that is quite natural to some form of authenticity we like for to cling To as our sense of identity though the negative cynic in me Says little advantage to you in knowing of your family tree Some people with a famous ancestor in public the fact do like to make known But their blood relationship to a criminal is something they wish to disown It is all about food for the ego for want of a better name One reason that we are enamored by our links to wealth and to fame But in real truth are we any different to the cow or the pig or the sheep Like them to the one known to us as the Reaper an appointment we are destined for to keep Like them we are only mere mortals and like them we are born to die It is only of fact i am speaking and fact as we know never lie Many middle aged to ageing people the family history do like to trace But you never hear them once mention their ancestor who died in disgrace.
