Gen Z
Diatelle Poem
Z
Don’t fret
Nor forget
You created
Relentless internet
Jobs that folks do not tolerate
For having a life that’s not exhaustive
From nine to five and does not require degrees
Because life is more than one that’s wasted
On passions being neglected
Constant feeling of dread
Never ahead
Don’t regret
You led
Free
This poem was challenging for me to write since I mainly write free from poetry. I did have a lot of fun pushing myself to finish this.
This poem was inspired because Gen Z gets a lot of push back on how they are but they grew up in this digital time unwillingly and just like any other generation they took off with what they had. Let's give them more grace for the world we are all trying to catch up with and learn.
I appreciate you for reading.
