About This Poem

Like Always

Life is never explained by euphoric platitudes,
---Into gaggles of petulant immaturity they evolve.
Reality entertainment delivers answers?---Not !
It confuses answers---complicates useful growth.
Unfortunately, the end result of Bachelor and Bachelorette,
Is confused and frustrated, empty souls,
And we, on the edge, wait and wonder---
Is society, our future, our children---Lost,
And do our fears into monsters undo
All that is good and genuine and kind ?
Or do I sit on this omniscient throne and judge
As have all generations in history---
Everything that isn’t like it was always ?

    I also wonder what things may be like for the next generation. All progress is not necessarily good. Nice poem.

    I love the mention of Bachelor show. I take it you have seen it. It's one of my guilty pleasures. the current bachelor is such a sweetie. But all that aside, I know what you mean about the reality shows and I also feel the despair of things not like they used to be!!! Very nice poem.
