we're all bozos on the same bus


i was born 

too early to witness

the invention of time travel

and the colonization of mars,

 

i was born

too late to experience

the discovery of earth

and the joy of gaining freedoms

 

i was born

too early to witness

a cure for cancer being made

and the discovery of alien life

 

i was born

too late to experience

the creation of cell phones

and the happiness of winning a war

 

but

 

i was born 

just in time to

be bullied over social media

and harassed for being a girl

and molested by guilty men

and judged by how many likes 

my instagram photo gets

and discriminated against based on

sexuality/religion/gender/race

and considered ugly because of the

number on the scale

and critizised for being myself.

 

maybe that's why everybody

talks trash about 

our generation?
