Surviving Generation X
We didn't boom for babies,
we just had a knack for rebellion.
Our coloured hair scared the elderly,
our cynicism blamed on our age, not the age.
We gladly would have torn down
society, and raved on its remains.
Then we grew up,
realized pensions are a natural part
of life, googled silly cats, got fat,
and slept through the same dreams as our parents.
We were lucky to have survived
our own unrest, the world
a plump berry we were always
destined to digest.
