Every day something definitive moves closer...
Reality slips from my gasp and my thoughts drown themselves in nothing.
Every day you wait, never deciding what you want from me.
I’m a paralyzed memory among your thoughts, submerged in nothing.
Every day a brilliant light steals away at the shadows in my room.
Something when the day rises, I do not, nor do I open the curtains of thought, and still, your suspended memory promises nothing.
I am a shadow, and one day a brilliant light will draw me towards...
Nothing.

The Gen Z Entrepreneurial Revolution
It is hardly debatable that the world has always been run by a bunch of aging dinosaurs, mostly male, who refuse to allow the younger generation to bring about changes. Politicians and leaders everywhere refuse to release the reigns of creativity and leadership until they are dead or dying. It is time to give the young a chance to revolutionize and change the entire landscape of their existence. Those of us with one foot in the grave, so to speak, should wake up and realize that we are not the ones who will be living in the world in the years to come.
