High above, in the tallest building
They plotted their evil victories
Who next, would be theirs to claim?
By the gods and goddesses of history
Greed and lust, ambition and death
Each one of them, human proprieties
Playing, with the minds of the weak
Toying, with their human dubieties
No care did they show for any being
They, were the grandest of them all
Crazed in their power, never seeing
How quickly their rise was sure to fall
May Writing Prompts – The Sugar Frosted Nutsack – Day 29/31 – This was the only title Michelle left as is. You might want to check out the book by Mark Leyner.

I hope and believe that the next generation will see they have power and use more wisely and with care and compassion 🙂

Based on what i see in my town, I wouldn’t bet on it. The generation below me have no regard for much (I’m not saying all, only what I’ve witnessed), and they are raising the next gen. I hope they wake up before it’s too late.

That is quite sad. In many countries across Europe we are seeing young people take the lead. When a schoolgirl basically told the UK government minister for the environment that he was deceiving the public and exactly how I think he was shell-shocked 🙂

Good for her!! We have young people taking stands, but some for the wrong reasons. I hope they find the right ones soon. 🙂
