Lost Generation Rewrite (poem)

I am part of a lost generation,
where the children disrespect the elderly,
where the rich look to get richer,
where the powerful find a way to control more.
I am part of a lost generation.
The poor become poorer,
the old become older,
and the weak become weaker.
I am part of a lost generation,
which cares for itself rather than for others,
which good looks bring fame while the other suffer,
which makes decisions based on the now, and not the later,
I am part of a lost generation.
