Modern Society

Ages, eras Pass on by in essence Time flies But what have we come to As a society? Simply falsehoods And false piety? Sorrow, hate Ruined fate Terrorism, controversy As of late Do we really comprehend The effects of our defects The implications Of what we elect What we elect For society to accept What eventually reduces us To ignorance's depth From everything now Today, yesterday, and tomorrow It seems as though The default emotion is sorrow But not all hope is lost For there is a light It may be in the distance But there is one cost We as a society Must choose to resolve Our immorality We must dissolve We must vanquish All hatred and conflict That we create And that media depicts Maybe if we take this One step at a time We may step out of this abyss Out of this paradigm.
