All need to be kept

Everyone needs to be kept

to be protected

to be shielded

from evil

 

Especially the young

 

Unlike the experienced

the young have their

own evil to battle against

 

Their passions run

rampart

 

Their lusts burn hot

 

Worldly pressure to conform is at its greatest

 

Is there any wonder many fail to survive
