When Did All This Happen

      When did the world become so young
         Every flight crew averages 22
         My health care ‘professionals’ all do too

     When did talking to people stop
         Texting each other three feet away
         Tiktoking your way through the day

      Where did all the baseball diamonds go
          Replaced by b-ball and pickleball courts
          Populated by weird folks of all sorts

      When did it become OK to swear
          Little censorship anywhere
          Females worse than males, I hear

       Where this all ends I am not sure
          One thing I know ~ none of it’s pure
