The Ignorance of Youth
The ignorance of youth is but a thorn in my side
While I dither over my assertions and wrestle with my rationale,
unearned wisdom and unsolicited opinions rain down upon the masses
Riotous, obtrusive verses, as fickle as the emotions that birth them, are inked across the nexus,
and fed like a saline drip to the veins of a ravenous global consciousness
The follies of youth in an age of despair
The rage of an information age where sharing is certainly not caring
Truth and beauty are lost amongst the rabble who clamber for their precious moment in the sun
Electronic screens offer a tinted window to a mirrored image of the world
It may be your window, but it is not your world
Are you painting over novel ideas that could change humanity for the better?
Will you still believe your truth in a week, a month, a year?
Do you care?
