Don't be surprised
That the adolescents
Are changing.
Leaving the indolent persona behind
And becoming the change
This increasingly sickening world
Needs.
Piles of stories
Have been crafted
About the teens
Leading the revolution
For a world
That desperately needs it.
So don't be surprised,
After years of anticipation
We are becoming fed up
Of seeing everything burst into flames.
How can young people
See the wrongdoing in mankind's ways
Clearer than people who have
Been alive for decades?
So don't be surprised,
We are rising.
