Clear Plastic

Children on a lesser footing
Inheriting a generation of desertion
Being as it may a stagnant river of infection
In a world reeking isolation.

They strike a portrait of authority
Against a parochial backdrop
And replace the repudiated case
In a perfume of indiscretion.

Ignorance chokes out the alleged
And reports the cultivated alibi
To the perils of the steadfast elite
Of the landscape of yesterday.
