A generation of watching movies,
of standing still
studying film.
Staring still images into dust,
appreciating what they could have seen
themselves.
What class of people
are those who would sit,
couch-stricken?
Suddenly they are risen - - socially-
Because they think.
A generation of praising emotions
over hard work
and sweat.
Why do we not value
the lifestyle
of the living stone?

A generation of watching movies,

Staring still images into dust,

Suddenly they are risen - - socially-
Because they think.
A generation of praising emotions
over hard work
and sweat.
Why do we not value
the lifestyle
of the living stone?
