Wallflowers

The Cool Kids table

positioned in front

Where Rolex and Prada

like hounds on the hunt

 

They pander and coddle

each other with flair

Ignoring all others

outside of their lair

 

The Cool Kids engender

self-titles and brand

As brain dead and hollow

they spew on demand

 

But Mommy and Daddy

won’t suckle prolonged

And sooner or later

they’ll cease to belong

 

The Cool Kids outdated

when faced with the truth

They only exist

when they’re part of ‘The Group’

 

Their 2oth reunion

will come in a flash

Where that table in front

— has been pushed to the back
