The Gruff Utopian

I wish those damn kids would stay
out of my garden. With all the woods
around here, they should be out hiking
or trail biking, or doing some project.

When I was young I went trekking,
lived off the land, exchanged labor at
settlements I passed through. I couldn't
seem to settle down. I was a seeker.

They take everything for granted.
Damn kids, damn kids. They don't
know what it all took. The end of
history did finally come I guess.

Damn kids. I love those damn kids.
To them this is all just bland common
sense, but I guess they are right, just
liberalism finishing its true work.
