It’s Not Going to Kill You

To do this or that,
Or if this or that.
You’re not going to die.

It wouldn’t kill you
To do whatever’s
Under discussion.

Common expressions
And commonly true
Within their contexts.

It’s not often acts
Prefaced by, it won’t kill you,
Do kill anyone.

But out of context,
What eerie phrases,
You’re not going to die

If etc.,
Since it will kill you,
Sooner or later.
