Puking, swearing, sliding, sharing,
foul-mouthed obscenities
pouring out in sick stream
to litter midnight street.
Bouncers cursing, police not caring,
clashing, blood on pavement,
knife in hand to protect
the dead from murder.
Yet, look and see the loving, daring,
girls of cities out for fun,
legs apart and breasts exposed,
called for morning-after pill.
New morality, global village,
"Gimme now, I want more."
Nature's children left abandoned
cycle worsens as we watch.

Mmmmm...I haven't seen something this yummy in a while. I think I am hanging out at all the wrong places.
It makes me angry to be placed among this youth because I am so different. I do not claim maturity beyond my years but I do follow my own path. 
To me it was a tribute to what is and what will never be.

It is the sad reality of decay ...
and all the eyes cry:
please give us tears;
please let us see the relief
of sorrowful joy ...
Take us from here
into our Utopia,
which we so feverishly avoid ...
HELP PLEASE ...
kill us, we are dead.
