The Cry of Our Future Childs

Here in front of me, Are the shadows of a nation. Faltering, falling, than dying. In my adolescent hands, In my child’s hands, And in my children’s, children’s hands. They cry They beseech With gory tears, Seeping out of their eyes. As they speculate on why, Have we forsaken them?
