Oldie But No Goodie Poem by Ima Ryma

Longer goes life expectancy,
With age dementia on the rise.
Soon, whole generations could be
Living veggies before one dies.
Children with parents losing minds
May come to lose their minds also,
Leaving the grandchildren who finds
Aging not a good way to go.
Elder abuse is getting bad,
And it will only become worse.
More kids will wish old Mom and Dad
Out of their lives and in a hearse.

Some native tribes knew what to do -
Leave the old one in a canoe.
