Sentinels, standing sentry on metal tops
where buried tectonic plates meet and stop
eventually the energy succumbs to entropy
but still eagles court in skyward canopy
reflections of faces in the frozen lakes
our symmetry ruined by irregular shapes
human precision, dwarfed by these peaks
the wise listen when the mountain speaks
this cloudless sky with one burning eye
looking upon land untouched by time
their moments form entire lives
i don’t feel like finishing this
What they did not want you to ever find out is that your generation, the generation born between 1980-1995, actually outnumbers the Baby Boomers. They knew that if you ever turned your eye towards political reform, you could change the world. They tried to keep you sated on vapid television shows and vapid music. They cut off your education and fed you brain candy. They took away your music and gave you Top Ten pop stations. They cut off your art and replaced it with endless reality shows for you to plug into, hoping you would sit quietly by as they ran the world. We as a society are only as strong as our weakest link. Give ‘em hell, kids.
