only the good die young

for some reason it's disturbing 
when bad people
live a long time.
people that never
did a sit up, or ran around
the block,
or did yoga or put a piece
of fruit in their mouth, let
alone broccoli. 
they never went to church,
never volunteered, never
helped anyone across the street.
selfish, unempathetic people,
pretentious and mean.
and yet, here they are
at ninety two, ninety three.
