What happened to the romantics?
Speakers of peace, lovers of love,
All thrown off the pedestal by the mass’s blood lust
fueled by their jealousy and greed
this ironic cynicism they must
rather have liars lead.
The Romantics die young
In today’s world will any replace them?
They are princesses and paupers, sisters and brothers
They come from anywhere
Burn bright
Then disappear.
Who are the new romantics?
Who will find reason reasonable?
Think of peace as possible
Who will stand against the machines?
And make more of human means?
Where are the new romantics?
