Cliches notwithstanding, not every old person is wise and kind, nor is every young one thoughtless or callow. Personality and brains, or lack of them, often stick around throughout one’s life.
Generations
I am old
and you are young
and she is oder than us both
which makes her wise
or a burden
depending on who you are
and that one
he’s extra young
so his words are profound
or dumb
eepending on who you are
and the girl with the hair
you know the one
rolls her eyes
tt the guy
with the mustache
you know the one
and they both make this woman
sigh
and that one clap
depending on who you are
because it’s easy, you know
to discount people
based on age and experience
but less easy to get to know people
based on interaction and pleasantness
what to do, then
when the young are weak (or smart)
and the old judgey (or wise)
I guess it depends
on who you are
and how yo use your eyes
