Legacy
its strange isn't it, that we are labelled as 'gen z'
it feels like
an end
has god run out of patience?
or will the alphabet start
again?
it feels like an end
we all collapse on narrow beds in bedrooms still decorated
with childhood
posters peeling
fading fast
it feels like
an end
coz we are the generation
that learnt to laugh at pain
like memes
and die
inside
and it is strange that we are 'z'
a crack through the human race
a crack in our minds
a crack in the delusion
a crack
in our voices
as we cry
'what mess is this
left to me
in my fathers will?'
for god has forsaken us
left us hanging on
the end
like an afterthought
we will only begin again if our cry turns to
a shout
fists raised
paint on placards dripping
like blood
'we will fix this mess
left to us
in humanities will'
so maybe it's not so strange
that we are 'gen z' ;
zealous even as
the world ends
and this, this feels like a
beginning
