Elderly woman hit by a bus.
She was elderly people,
So what's all the fuss?
She  had a full life, 
What more can you say?
These elderly people,
They get in the way.
When you are old 
You should stay at home.
What  was she thinking?
going out all alone.
And as I read on I thought,
Can this be?
This elderly woman 
Was  younger than me.
