Feral Teens

I can just picture them now: raised by wolves, fed upon raw meat, howling at the moon. And when of age, say, about 12 or 13 they will leave their lobos mothers and wave a tearful good-bye to the forest of their childhood. Then suited, booted, armed, to the teeth. With tracksuit over fur, they board the train. Destination: SOCIETY

Very nice though I must say

your picture doesn't do you justice. "Suited, booted, armed to the teeth" ain't that the truth. Sharp and biting social commentary, you do the poet's duty proud me boy! RT
