Going Down?

Someday we will all be gone,
No matter who we are.
The down and out, the middle class,
The famous movie star.

Life’s journey is a one way trip,
An elevator ride.
Encapsulated friends and foes,
Descending side by side.

We crowd aboard and choose our floor,
All caught up in the race.
But the buttons pushed don’t matter
Cause we end up in the same place.
