Of Rare Kind, A Generation To Extinction

we are of a rare kind
a generation close to
extinction, fighting a battle
without deathly armors,
facing a world of pluralism.
zilch authority.
no common worldview.
pestered by the status quo,
we trail blaze to seek
new answers to old questions
and more questions
to impending answers.
new routes, we explore
spelunking to the deepest
of the earths, and diving
the bottom of the oceans.
the yesteryears see us so
indifferently, without sense
neither sensibility.
indifferent, we are branded,
so closely identified to apathy.
failed they are to realize,
internalize even, that we
stand up to standards
we call our own; that we
simply perceived, gone are
the ways of the yesteryears
to approach present
dilemmas; and that what
we seriously need is a
dialogue of faith, and
respect of differences.
for we are of a rare kind,
a generation close to
extinction, thriving not
for distinction but to make
things better, at least,
far better than we've
found it, far not bitter
from the legacy of the past.
