Suspect Subject of Success
My generational siblings and I
Did not do better
Things with our lives
Than those who came prior
Though we were inspired
Providers as parents
We were little more than stable
Definitely gave to much
And prepared our children
Less than we were able
Strangled by social distractions
Items of fashion
Gadgets
And promise of career advancements
That never happened
Quite the way anticipated
Bastion actions implicated
The reign disintegrated family ties
Lost the more we fantasized
Of higher expectations
Shame and disrespect reflecting
What the heck were we projecting
Mattered more to live for
Factors that were ignored
Biting back
After the fact
I do suggest
We all confess
Will and effort
Work better than rest
But still attest
The worst or best
Luck is what scrambles the eggs to success
So hold no regrets
Go out and hatch your
Suspect subject
Happily ever after
