Kids These Days

Don’t their cries pose more questions?
Like “why can’t I have a thousand billion dollars”?
Kids these days can’t be beaten.
Like flogging clouds, the whips don’t count.
Every warning is a go ahead sign.
Pull their ears and you just switched on their wild side.
They are monkeys with no tails,
Toy soldiers and baby dolls are for the weak,
Video games and violent movies are their rankings.
Should we still call them kids?
