Pilots and Pills. What do you think?

Question:

Pilots and Pills. What do you think?

An old pilot once said to his wife
I am sorry I can??t maintain life
this old tool of mine
Has little more time
I fear we could be in some strife

A solution was found in pill form
And no longer did his wife mourn
The blue pill he??d pop
All night they??d not stop
The old pilot felt he was reborn

But a problem occurred the next day
While walking to work, looked and did say
"Like a 12 story tower,
Everlasting in power"
But to rest he could not make it lay

On the runway a plane taxied quick
The co-pilot his face looking sick
For beside him he saw
What he??d like to ignore
The old pilot was on the wrong stick

My favourite stanza:

"But a problem occurred the next day
While walking to work, looked and did say
Like a 12 story tower,
Everlasting in power
But to rest he could not make it lay"
