A Lost World

The world is becoming complex 
Entirely different from the last century one 
Racism, hegemony, corruption, brainwashing and vandalism 
Become common 
Nothing can be done to wipe them out 
Maybe tolerance is the only key 
To survive in a lost world
Created by the devil in the heart 
Which has produced three poisons 
Greed, hatred and infatuation 
The source of all passions and delusions 
In a lost world of today and tomorrow

The world and it's ways have changed a lot. The last century men and women were still men and women. No need to go any further. Nice write, Sal.

The trouble is that one wonders if all this continues to happen but perhaps in different ways. Will our world change? If so, for better or worse - or just become different. Certainly, reading your poem makes one's mind wander - and wonder. Thanks, Sai Lin Lip.
