Those Who Caress
Peers and youth clatter and clank
Minds nearly filled with blank
Always looking so fine and swank
A job and work a threat or a prank
Parents diving into their savings bank
To support such a life of dank
Never pulling the truth of rank
Kids today need to walk the plank
Acting as if life is but a sceptic tank
When opportunities are endless
And we ignore we are truly bless’
In a world that gives us any chance to progress
We only strive to impress
Never reassess the excess
And assess or confess to our obsess to transgress
I digress to distress and profess my lack of finesse
To undress those who gave me the road to success
Nevertheless I depress and distress about those in recess
This mess of stress about the life of chess
Is only about those who caress to possess
