Was I as dumb and blind as those Grade 5’s
who sit in buses every day in front?
The media and biases in life
affected them so deeply it affronts
the wholesomeness to which the youth did strive
in times since passed. It makes our lives seem blunt
by sad compare. How wickedly they pry!
How foolishly dependent and defunct!
They flaunt their musical devices like
a book, so good and wise and valuable.
They speak of news without the truthful lies,
but with the bias printed in their souls.
They lost their innocence in their short lives,
and now, corrupt, are grossly so morose.
It's almost ironic that I had to try so hard to come up with couplets (end two lines in a Shakespearean sonnet) and now that I don't have them, I put them back in! (except in this one the lines in the couplet don't rhyme with each other)
