That's Woke!
“That’s woke,”
I heard the old man complain,
as he’s confronted
with an idea
different from his day.
“That’s woke,”
I heard a woman exclaim,
when asked to consider
a point of view
that did not reflect her own.
“That’s woke,”
a declaration of a generation
holding tightly to the old ways,
unwilling to listen,
resistant to change,
refusing to grow.
