Rebelling Youth

Protestant Grave Yard in Rome- taken 2013

Corintians "we in the past, themselves, sentences to be"

WE the youth of a dying democracy,
have no faith left in these old men
who accepted all the mistakes of
the past within the scope of their
job description

Ourselves, rise only to better the future
of our children's children their life-
Sentences-surrounded by destruction-
their homes familiy's friends-death

will be a frequent vistitor
no condolences found normally
in their faith, no padding the inevitable
losses,

so we teach them as our mother's did,
we catapult our voices towards the
world's vaulted skies, with hope
that we might be heard by the
God those old me have forgotten to fear.
