You "adults", you exasperate me
with your evasions and delays.
You're going to have to change
some of the ways that you behave.

After reading some very? serious accusations against 'adults', I laughed, quietly, inside my body mostly, when I read 'Sorry, but.. You're all grounded people.'....Are you REALLY sorry? ;)
I haven't 'had' a god in over 50 years, so I'm to be excused for ANY of MY behavior. DON'T touch my phone! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! I'm warnin' you, anais! bri : )
I'm a first-time reader of this poem but have enjoyed quite a few from anais (not all) in the last few months. People should NOT be expected to be any better than their god/gods is/are at doing what some moralist may consider 'the right way to act'! ! !
I love this poem. Even though I have been an for quite some time, I have kept alive the ideals I had when I was in my teens. I thoroughly hope that more young people do keep their ideals throughout life and do not let them be swept away by " adults" who failed to live up to their own ideals
Great Poem! You tell 'em! A lot of talk, but those that make the rules for others are the first to brake them. I totally agree with you, we certainly have no right to destroy this gorgeous, generous blue planet. And those that do should be exiled to outer space and yes, with their phones taken away. This poem certainly deserves to be, Poem of the Day! Congratulations
some " adults" allegorically I think it's the some superpower countries are playing in this world with their innovative destructive weapons and for their every single misdeed suffering the third worlds. The superpower countries are pretending they are with third worlds countries but it's really very sad that all are wicked grounded!
you're even playing with guns. And you're pretending everything's ok. You were taught better than this. Sorry, but.. You're all grounded people....yeah; right you are, congrats for being selected this poem as POD.....5******
How conveniently we forget when we growup and become. Our behavior towards life, nature and other creatures becomes very indifferent. You poem is a perfect reminder of these facts. Loved the way you wrote..5***
Very funny, Anais, yet full of truth! Congratulations on getting member poem of the day!
Ah, there you are now....and rightly so! We are looking forward to more of your poetry my friend!
Your words say so much about the world right now. Wake up world. Thank you Anais.
Excellent, even outstanding work, I'd say. This poem carries multiple messages, and it is exceptionally well-constructed. Such understanding of the human predicament! Keep writing Anais. You are a very inspiring young woman! We " adults" are listening!
Most beautiful...it has captured the root of today's problems. Thank you dear Poet.
I agree what you say but many a times we have to analyse a d then decide to do maybe that might delay the enactment or maybe the final outcome. Thanks for sharing your perseverative as you feel. Congratulations for being chosen as poem of the day.
Homework for both teen and! Better to live with righteous morals than, Hatred and war. Thanks for sharing this poem with us.
The anger of a teen on Adults is but natural, they see the things differently and by the time they themselves will become Adults, I am sure they will laugh at it for they were perceiving. Good Poem Full Stars
