21st Century Man

Educated and evaluated

I exercise an active plan

Captivated and dedicated

I'm my one and only fan

Motivated and understated

I get by the best that I can

Aggravated and constipated

I'm a 21st century man

I know how you feel Randy. Your words are a perfect description of the modern man.

Hi Jerry, sometimes I wish I lived back when we were still on the Barter system. Life was a lot slower than then.

What a brilliant write this is! You’ve described how so many feel and also conveys strength, sometimes we dont need validation, from outside. I especially love how you’ve used the word constipated there! So clever! And “ im my one and only fan” this poem is unique and refreshing for me! For some reason! I enjoyed reading this!

Thank you, I really appreciate that. Sometimes I wish I could teleport myself into the future to see if we've finally grown up and learned from our past mistakes. I know we're basically in our infancy as a species, but I think it's time to put on our big boy pants and find a solution to make it work for everyone. Frankly, until we get off the monetary system, I don't think much will change for anybody. The haves will rule over the have-nots and continue playing us against one another. Divide and conquer works like a charm, doesn't it? Thanks again for your feedback.

"I'm my one and only fan Motivated and understated" Oh the situation and dilemma of a 21st century man that you've described here.. Really a thought provoking and introspective write.. Wonderfully crafted.

Hello Hiya, I imagine it applied to 20th century men too. It just seems it's more pronounced these days. Ah, if only to be born during simpler times. Maybe in my next life. Thanks for your feedback. It's greatly appreciated.
