A handsome face
with headphones
oblivious of surroundings
screen-distracted
ducking advice
with deaf-gear
I see a pattern-breaker
changing structures
to fit in
to redefine identities
rather than be
fire-baptized
they’ll change the world
these tradition-shirkers
I salute
all path-breakers

‘deaf-gear’ – 100% correct! ;D

Love the thought, the young are the one who will have to drive change going forward, I just hope that the screen-distraction does not lead them wrong

Why should we apply our value system to a future they are building for themselves?

I used to see these ‘tradition-shirkers’ all the time, Reena, and I’m happy to leave them to their own devices, these ‘screen-distracted’ youths ‘ducking advice with deaf-gear’ and redefining identities ‘rather than be fire-baptized’. I’ll watch from a distance.

A good choice! It keeps the generation gap from getting at us.
