The Ethical Extermination

For where are the elders of the West?

Our forerunners discredited;

Of policy, adhering to youthful interest;

A measure to see our truth, is edited.

What of the elder's role as gatekeeper?
Bereft we are of cautionary direction;

Without them we're a mere sleeper;

deprived of future protection.

Ethical extermination of our elderly;

Nursing homes to keep them hidden.

Prescription drugs to keep them sedentary.

Growing old's, corporately forbidden.

No one questions the vaunted youthful;

Their sexualization a constructed beauty;

Profit eugenics maliciously untruthful.

Social ignorance sworn public duty.

Bombarded we are by youthful images;
Illusions of purity and innocence.
These mental warfare scrimmages;
Reward adolescent insolence.

Our elders impoverished;
Denied merit, naively reserved.
Their lives, systematically demolished;
Acknowledge them; their place well deserved.
