Irrational


a walk in the park like a
walk in the dark, is never
like we remember it...
youth cuts its teeth on
growing older faster and
wiser than the generation
before without understanding,
hollering louder while they
complain of promises never
fulfilled and gifts never to be
received on Christmas Day
since it is no longer religious
but just another holiday...
armed guards sit in the hallways
of our schools waiting for a
little violence to take place, 
not realizing they are too late
to ignore the taught truths...
a new generation has learned
to walk in the dark and has
learned the dark is no longer
sinister if you belong to the
correct political party and if
you speak the words that they
taught you in their spare time.
