Telling a Millennial Good-Bye

by Reese Turner

Get on the road!
Road? O.K. but to where?
Where it might take you…
You don’t really care?
. 
Care not a bit, I demand.
Demand? That I just go?
Go and find your future!
Future? Must I now know?
. 
Know about work, love and life,
Life is what I’m missing? When…
When sleep and text is all there is!
Is it so wrong to just sleep in?
. 
In what work shall I do?
Do whatever. Find what will fit.
Fit my pocket? Got any change?
Change? Your own dollars get.
.
Get real. It’ll take a while…
While I’ll be waiting here…
Here will always be my home.
Home is here, but later, dear.
