The
Silence of the Aged
Do
you hear the voice of the elderly. They are barely speaking above a whisper. I
am trying to figure it out. They have been so accustomed to yelling at us
outside, telling us that we should be in before dark, take the trash out, clean
up your room and the best one, did you do your homework? Am I the only one that
hear the silence? Why are our old people talking just an octave above a
whisper. Oh, wait, they are no longer in their homes, they are living in one
room with one bathroom of a nursing home and there is no need to shout anymore.
Does it really suck getting old and have they been forgotten and are now a thing
of our past.
