youth preserves itself by
copying the habits of the old;
living on the fault line of opportunity
and expecting they are owed
something in return for their birth;
youth climbs the mountain
of mediocrity slowly by steadily
as they profess false laments
that their time will never come;
youth bargains with the devil
regularly in a vain attempt at hoping
both prayers have been answered.
