As youth is wasted on the young
So must wisdom be wasted on the old
For neither cultivates the void
But instead laments the deficit
Rage is known to all
Sparked by frustration
Fueled by ignorance
Experience remains the teacher
Except for fools
We move on or die
We adapt or perish
Choices abound and confound
Yet still constructed and deployed
Life goes on
With or without us
