The Pre-Lib Kid (Day 5)

The Pre-Lib Kid was confused in the middle.
The Pre-Lib Kid was born before the fateful '91 but still stuck in the 80s.
The Pre-Lib Kid was exposed to life without a television and enjoyed BBC on the radio.
The Pre-Lib Kid had a cassette player and often re-taped their songs on it too.
The Pre-Lib Kid knew Sunny Deol, Govinda and Karishma Kapoor in bright pink.
The Pre-Lib Kid watched Dekh Bhai Dekh and still enjoyed Rafi and Kishore.
The Pre-Lib Kid was stuck between nutrition and junk.
The Pre-Lib Kid was emotional, but craved the indifference of the post-lib.
The Pre-Lib Kid tried to go the indifferent way, but miserably failed.
The Pre-Lib Kid was perplexed and stuck between two worlds.
The Pre-Lib Kid in the end always picked tradition.
The Pre-Lib Kid was just a kid.
The Pre-Lib Kid never grew.
