When Dealing With 'Kids' Poem by Lawrence S. Pertillar

You may dislike me for your own reasons,
Unknown to me as you continue to do it.
But don't feel alone.
Eventually I will find some dislikes of my own,
Customized just for you.
And with a doing from which you can easily pick.
To satisfy your childishness you insist,
I should acknowledge and give attention to recognize.

'Why would you stoop down to their level? '

When dealing with 'kids',
How else can I do that without meeting them eye to eye?

'Oh.
I thought you were talking about 'adults'.'

Many today just look that way.
But where their minds are the change remains undetected.
And I want it understood...
Where my mind is they will comprehend,
With a doing not to waste any more of their time.

'Does it work? '

I don't know if it does or not.
But when I leave them their eyes are wide open from shock.
