TODAY’S WORLD

Unlike the olden days

 we follow not our trace

 Night clubs and parties

are now our priorities


 Storytelling is outmoded

 and unimportant

Our history and culture,

we are not interested in

We'd rather roam aimlessly

 than stay home and run errands


Unlike our forefathers,

Today’s youth prefer to bleach

their dark and gorgeous skin

 Words from our parents and

elders are unimportant


Instead words from our peers

are important and worth hearing

 All we care about now is money

 and are therefore controlled by money

Killing for money is no big

deal

 Betraying for money is no big deal either


 Ways and means to get

 money is what matters most

Our minds are now full of

obscenities and wickedness

 Coupled with jealousy and envy


Hard work and ambitions

 are obsolescent

How to get rich faster

 is what's needed

 Everything is wanted

on a silver platter


 This is today's generation

The generation that

knows no creativity or logic

The generation that has

 occupied their minds

 With money and nothing else

Yet are neither ready

 nor willing to work for it.
