Unfinished

I figured this one might ring with this board, I could be wrong, it's as of yet unfinished...
Where will I go?
Where have you gone, you baby-boomers
with your swollen memories, and
locket shaped tumors
with your pensions dropping like
barrels from Niagara falls when
stock market bubbles burst
Hearing rumors of this greatest generation,
who fought in the trenches, and bled on the
shores, saving democracy for all time
from a man with one testicle
The measure of man, is battlefield courage,
left without struggle, you turned to the mind, but
Where have you gone, you LSD priests
you tripped in the gutter, and
stayed for a week
watching your brothers fly into Cambodian jungles,
while you read current events from
college podiums, jumpstarting
SUV apathy with Woodstock smiles
marching rifleless to the capital, to bring the
boys home, heaving your slogans like pebbles,
against tanks, not realizing that
destitution doesn’t shape politics
Where have you gone, you yuppie suits
swept into traffic, with
your stock market truths
Watching your CEO’s 401k gambles
come crashing with those towers that
woke you from your leather couch dreams
in your 40 inch plasma eyes
Surrounding yourself with pursuits electronic
sending your angry teens off to universities
to major in business and law
Where have you gone, generation X
walking through townhouse
neighborhood feeling blessed
the weight of a nine to five no fit for
your shoulders,
but the internet pirates were
not the best of share holders
and when we were immune to the millennium
bug,
