Poem: Interesting Times

Oh the horror! Young minds fresh ideas challenging the status quo. No respect no honor what is this world gone to? "I suffered through it so should they! It builds character! Nothing is this world is free! No one gets a free ride as long as you seize the opportunities!" To hear them speak they trudged up the hill in six foot snow both ways and backwards worked a job for 30 years bought a house at 25. Fought for change against their own elders made great strides but now pulling up the stakes reversing all progress in their dying wake. Can the cycle be broken? The yang becomes yin The popular becomes anaethema the powerful becomes poor. Is lasting change just out of reach and just a passing fancy?
