Soul Sucking Screens
What if kids found people as role models, not by what they post;
This generation needs to comprehend what is least important and what is most;
Living their live vicariously by following stars, friends, and foes;
Well guess what follows them, ignorance from their heads to their toes;
Spending their whole lives staring at screens from television, to touch phones, to more;
But not screens of which they study at; for they find those a bore;
Trying to convince others, to convert to their religion of wasting time;
If you’re not one of them, they’ll act like their hearts are made of lime;
Neglecting you, teasing you, keeping your happiness submersed;
But in the end, will these screens help them when they are at their worst?
