My ol' mum needs to quit.
But the ol'man put
Her in her place
So I am concluding
She is pushing
Herself too hard
Just to keep him happy.
She knows she can
Find another job easily.
She just has pound signs
In her eyes - the redundancy package.
Her superiors are trying
To bull her out.
It is just making my stubborn
Ol'mum more determined
To hang in there.
I am fed up of
Her complaining about
Being knackered and
Aching head to foot and
Not getting on with management.
If she could go part time
She would do it instantly.
She refused statins
So now we have
To worry she may
Have a heart attack or stroke
After the neuroma
Being enough worry.
She is pecking and panting
When she walks in the door.
But she will push
Herself until something gives.
Stubborn ol mule.
