We were left
wanting to scream,
shout, fight, bite back;
retorts stuck in our throats
like so many hanging carcasses.
Despite protests,
of what should have been,
(&& undoubtedly never will be,)
rusted vehicles still carried us
to places where dependence
on the once revolted
is all that keeps us sane.
Depending for dependances' sake
now, leaves little to the imaginations
of helpless adolescents.
Caring never was their strong point.
