This poem is created in the cut-out method of writers like William S. Burroughs. It provides a view of troubled youth. At the time it was written, it was intended more to communicate the sentiments of the Beat movement writers in the 1950's and 60's, but as I wrote it I found that it described what our present generation was feeling as well. I hope this poem gives you encouragement to face our world as an individual with faith in the power of your spirit.... and voice!
