Teenagers

A poem for a contest on the subject of teens

We're all so different,
all so alike,
some of us are older,
others still on the hike.

Some listen to Green Day,
others to Bieber,
and most of the old folks,
don't care for either.

We're rebellious and loud,
stupid and proud,
and the meanest among us,
are the ones that we crown.

Too tough to fit in,
too scared to stand out,
the grown-ups know nothing,
we want to drop out.

We're teenagers, yes,
but oh so much more,
and if you think otherwise,
we'll show you the door.
