10th ANNUAL
INTERGENERATIONAL POETRY CONTEST
you misuse me never call
bill me charge me for
you treat me like a tool you'll never use
out of you mouth you've called me used
now I sit here in my room
wondering
when and where am I going
America
“I AM ELDERLY AND THIS IS HOW YOU TREAT ME”
“I AM ELDERLY AND THIS IS HOW DOES AMERICA TREATS ME”
now I sit here in my room
wondering
when and where am I going
some shether
you place me in something not better
bearly alive you keep my money social security
Live or die I'll see not all of it
out of you mouth you've called me used
now I sit here in my room
wondering
when and where am I going
America
“I AM ELDERLY AND THIS IS HOW YOU TREAT ME”
“I AM ELDERLY AND THIS IS HOW DOES AMERICA TREATS ME”
You treat me old
You bind my toes
You sell my extra things
you misuse me never call
bill me charge me for
you treat me like a tool you'll never use
out of you mouth you've called me used
now I sit here in my room
wondering
when and where am I going
America
“I AM ELDERLY AND THIS IS HOW YOU TREAT ME”
“I AM ELDERLY AND THIS IS HOW DOES AMERICA TREATS ME”
