The Gen Z

They've grown up in the digital world, are difficult to wean, from the net,

To be 'woke', 'socially responsible', 'gender neutral', are their topics pet.  

Comfortable with @mentions and #tags, they carry activism on their sleeves, 

Fighting on-ground injustices and lies, with their snapchats and tweets.

 

The generation that talks openly, about periods and sex,

Throws away the cloak of mystery, is open to the max. 

They talk about their mental health, how they've been anxious and depressed,

Eager to take help when needed, not suffering by remaining stressed. 

Insecure about how they'll make a living, yet not caring two hoots.

Who they are underneath is important, than wearing ties and suits. 

Purpose and passion comes first, when they hustle its not for money, but love, 

They expect their employers to be values driven, and care about environment, over and above. 

 

Generations have come and gone, on the Gen Z our hopes we pin, 

We might have given up in despair, whereas they have just begun.
