PLIGHT
Lady in her 80s
Fragile and Alzheimer's
Alone and lonely
Perfect for the hunter
Woman of pride
Kept the joint family in her stride
A personality of her own
Intelligence and character woven
Families became nuclear
Older people s place became unclear
Roles became reversed
Presence a burden
A good chance for revenge
To the cleaners taken
Every past incident retold
Made them regret manifold
Every living second
Hell will treat better
Plight ignored by every other
Even by regular visitors
Food in restriction
Maybe for a reason
Accused for every development
Assault a regular weapon
Sidelined in a room forever
Every second in fear
Words laced with threat
Or hands used deemed fit
On a daily basis
Slowly developed neurosis
Warden the villain
Wrongly delivered judgement
