Time Ticking Terribly
What was snow white is becoming dark red
and all forbidden elements, we now touch.
Honesty and charity hanging on a thread
the society having no positive influence from the church.
Why can’t we understand that everyone is everyone’s kindred?
It doesn’t matter if you’re African or Dutch.
Discipline and perseverance we dread
Spirituality and godliness, hated so much.
Corruption and hate we eat in one loaf of bread
but baked so sweet and soft of such.
Our minds, losing their Authority
to the robbers of perversion.
My weeping spirit scares this ink
to stop this out pour from a melting heart.
Time ticks, but unfortunately in a terrible direction
