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?

The Lost Generation
