gifted

with awareness of our privilege
comes a grateful sort of guilt
some sorts of knowledge make the flowers bloom
some just make them wilt
a generation of geniuses
who have cynicism up their sleeves
empty pockets, empty prospects
we see a mess//we want it clean
seeing past the media messages
seeing the struggle of the other man
modern day revolutionaries stuck behind our keyboards and our #rants
change the brightness on the screens like we wish to change the brightness of our futures
pollution, student debt, political gridlock

we were told we were smart// 
we are left bitter
