Watching the World Fall Off a Board

Unbelievable, unseen;fall of a nation Stocks rise and sink,no soul dare to work We blame countries for our thirst of the dollar As recession baffles the minds A world of covid~19, the strands linger The people scare to breath Governments fall, corruption all way to society choice Where be US as a nation except what we allow Hatred, building even stronger than years past A constitution just as well to treason your act Future, what say ye'who is without Christ That walls tumble, sickness spread among the land you travel Even of yourselves I am sicken A world of devastation and destruction Future? I think not we kill ourselves Even in heart as the blood spills World falling off a board,on edge of living Existence merely to extinction We, being who they say we are Not of ourselves we live the steps we take But of their choice they say it is ok Slave today to mankind himself Watching the world fall off a board All our dreams and build merely dust We crumble, from the board we fall A new society we FAIL to exist
