Questions For Today’s Youth

Why? Passionless youth roam the streets Their ears crowded by the blasting music The fruits of the latest cellphone technology misplaced Abused by the clueless youth with their big headphones Their senses compromised by this display of ignorance Their minds polluted by the senseless beats That chokes out the flow of novel ideas And the delicate 6th sense is totally switched off Rendering their creative part of the brain useless Why? Gangs of youth parade the classrooms Oblivious to the teachers before them In their drug induced comatose stupidity They fail to gather freshly baked knowledge Choosing to revel in their hallucinatory creations The proceeds of their “fashionable” hobbies Senselessly destroying their future Rendering them unfit to be leaders of tomorrow Why? A pack of youth choose to go astray Criminal minds growing in their adolescent bodies Mushrooming into gigantic weeds in their brains Wiping away years of grooming by their loving parents Chasing away the blossoming dreams in their young lives They choose crime against the benevolent act of learning Robbing people of their hard earned belongings Slashing down their own time outside the penitentiary A hollow prison cell awaits them with every passing day Their future’s obituary written and sealed Why? A handful of youth completed the unforgiving race Graduating from their laborious courses with difficulties Having spent a lifetime at the university or college Supplementing exam, their way of life Victims of recurrent educational mishaps Finally discharged to the world outside Reveling in their newfound freedom Partakes in idiotic road stunts Unconcerned about their new found future They carelessly wallow on the temptations of alcohol Drinking and driving, their new hobby Death becomes a matter of time
