Laugh At the World
Laugh at the world right now
Twisting emptying shell we wonder how
Time after time wars come
Deep loss post weapons hum
Countries losing blood refugees flee
Welcoming nations have been key
Lost so much finding so little
appears peace warrants asylum committal
Demagogues, wolves in sheep skin
Spewing rhetoric making heads spin
Leading blind still sustain lying illusion
Smart few staving off logical conclusion
Yes we assuredly must laugh
Reading in tears world's epitaph
