Your caught up in the stream
Of life in the 21st century
No more small talks
Sms'ng has become the norm
Dvd's , dstv and mixit is taking up our time
No more blind dates
Logging onto a date site
Is the norm of the day
Foreplay is no more
Pop an ecstacy
And your ready to go
Relaxing after a days hard work
Sniff a line or two
And your buzzing the night away!

I think the good advice that WickedEve gave you in her response to "Our Children" also applies to this poem. A philosophical statement or a universal truth that you have discerned from your experiences is not necessarily poetry. You have to take a concrete example of each of your statements and evoke the generality in rich imagery of a particular so that the general becomes obvious to your reader.<br><br>
Also look at every single word and ask yourself: "Will I loose anything if I lose this work." Delete the word if it is not adding anything to the communication of plain sense, emotional meaning or the rhythm that's necessary for your meaning.<br>
<br>
Keep working on it. I think you have a lot to offer.
