![]() Dear My GenerationA Poem by OplerasDear
generation, Dear
generation, everyone is a winner. Dear
generation war. Dear
generation violence and bombs. Dear
generation why don’t you appreciate the freedom fought for by a brave soul now
in the earth Dear
generation popularity If
you’re not beautiful you don’t make it and instead you’ll be pushed down Dear
generation bullying I
was bullied Although,
they were young and didn’t know how much it hurt, the emptiness that was felt. Dear
generation hero. Where
are your heroes? Dear
generation fame. Drag
race down some public road and smile for your mug shot, cause your fans,
lawyers and money will bail you out over night. Dear
generation hate. Publish
hateful propaganda towards a religious peoples and call it FREEDOM OF SPEECH! Dear
generation lessons, You
have lessons, But
are they positive? Are
they setting a good example? How
is your music generation? I’ve
got no problem being all about that bass, about that bass, no treble. But,
I’m not in love with the coco, Nor
do I find it “dope” to call women offensive names. Dear
generation conflict, Some
police officer killed a kid, Another
officer killed a kid as well, Were
they sorry? It
started a riot, a riot, a riot, Then
in turned into killings and store robberies. Who
is the better group? Who
are the innocent? Who
are the guilty?
How
can we say that we are a country that helps others when we cant even help
ourselves? So
much violence, so much bullying, so much alcohol, so much pollution, so many
bombs, so many guns, so many guns. Innocent
children placed at the end of a gun. Bullet,
bullet, bullet. Innocent
children. Innocent
children.
Dear
generation representative, Who
will represent you? Is
there any among us? Is there hope? IS THERE HOPE? There is. Dear generation brave, The
ones who face diseases and guns to save those in suffering. Dear
generation give, The
ones who give their left overs from dinner to that an om the side of road who
probably hasn’t had a meal in days. Or
the ones who give large sums of their money and time to a local soup kitchen or
food pantry down the road. Dear
generation selfless, 28
billion dollars to an organization from a multibillionaire, twice of what he
makes each year. These
are your heroes, generation. Treasure
them, look up to them. These
are the ones who should represent you. This can be your generation. © 2015 OplerasAuthor's Note
