Ache over Ageism

Articles like these are good.

But they re open the wound and leave a lingering ache. 

An ache of being retrenched at 57
Long before the official retirement age
Despite there being posts that relevant
Despite not having done anything wrong
Despite years of writing off the ass for the organisation 

If it were the private sector, 
It'd have been called to account by MOM!

The ache
Of everyone turning the other way
Influential leaders themselves

Where's the moral principle

The ache
Lingering still
The wound
Re opened time and again
