Youth Of Today Poem by louis rams

Youth of today

The world is moving way too fast, kids don't
Have time to wipe their ass.
Parents working hard to make a living
And children want them to keep on giving.
Kids no longer play in the street - cause
That's too much of a feat.
Automation and robotics is the technology of today
And the young just want to stay home and play.
Ordering online is just " so fast " that the
Shopping malls will be a thing of the past.
No more hanging out and meeting friends
All of that will soon end.
Will they have a life that they can call their own
And memories that will last "or " will that
Be put into the past.
Your guess is as good as mine and we'll find that out given time.
