this is about ABUSE and AGE


as you know there is so many different types of abuse and a lot of it is on seniors


we have the physical ,******, verbal, mental to name a few and the elderly parents can fall into two and many times three of the four listed'  we see children who can not , will not or just don't give a **** about anyone let alone their own parents'


first may come the verbal abuse and then the mental abuse and finally the physical.


so this little poetic story is about parents getting even.


                                   PARENTS REVENGE


mom, dad - you lived your life so let me live mine


i'm not going to take care of you till the end of time.


I am young with so many things to do and no time to take care of you.


i'll have to put you in a nursing home or an assisted living


maybe you could survive on what social security is giving.


I am packing your bags and sending you away, I can't take care of you another day.





the father answered - my child since the day that you was born


we fed you, bathed you, changed your diapers and changed your clothes


because of the love we have for you.


now the tables are turned and you must do for us what we did for you


but if you don't want to -" that's o.k. too.


because we didn't expect any more from you


we had bought a house in OLD MEXICO and that is wher


we both shall go, with our social security checks


we  can live like a king and queen and it's the most beautiful house


that we've ever seen. we'll have two live in servants


and a nurse, who will take care of us for better or worse


so live your life as you must, because we put our savings in a trust.


ha -ha  the joke's on you son.
