Poem from Ashley D

This is the poem by an 8th grader.

Our generation will be remembered for nothing
Never will anybody say,
We were the peak of mankind.
That is wrong, the truth is
Out generation was a failure.
Thinking that
We actually succeeded
Is a waste. And we know
Only living for money and power
Is the way to go.
Being loving, respectful, and kind
Is a dumb thing to do.
Forgetting about that time
Will not be easy, but we will try
Changing the world for the better
Is something we never did.
Giving up
Was how we solved our problems.
Working hard
Was a joke.
We knew that
People thought we couldn't come back
That might be true.
Unless we turn things around.
