The Lost Generation
Sleeping hearts
And dormant souls
Beauty hibernates
Many years fold
Shattered reflections
Eras unseen
Generation: Perfection
Of them, are you keen?
Undiscovered peoples
Obscured luminescence
Shadowed by life’s steeples
Hidden is its presence
Great- their advances
Ignored- their passion
Will cause today’s trances
Lost- intelligence enough to ration
Underground spirits
Nightlife astounding
Colors like parrots
Such a city, hear the pounding
Learn to listen with your hands
And feel with your eyes
The masters of oneness can
All connected are their lives
Together, in unison
Sleeping and knowing
Waiting to show their Sun
And love that is flowing
Wisdom consuming people
Swallowed in thought
Outpouring in emotion
And flawed they are not
Crafters of the stars
And admirers of Animalis
Networking nature afar
That family of causes
Protectors of innocence
Harboring lovers
Defense for our weakness
Strength shared like brothers
Who are these creatures
Forgotten and lost?
Crazy, awe worthy features
And what is their cost?
Who sings this song
Of grace and ability?
Who could play to this music
And not feel so guilty?
