My poem "My Mom....Old Man Use To Be" is another in a series of poems about "My Mom".

 "MY MOM....OLD MAN USE TO BE"

 

My mom had this saying

Whenever there was something

Happening creating anxiety

In the vastness of our society

In this great big country

Her response was always

By saying this phrase

That old man use to be

Was dead and gone

That old man "used" to be was dead and gone. - However, I do not understand the connection about having anxiety.
