A World Gone Wrong

I’m in a world that has gone wrong
Nothings the same everything’s changed.
People are wearing there socks on each arm 
There wearing there underwear on there head.
There sleeping in store beds
There flying to work 
Instead of riding there bikes
There walking through bathroom
Taking a hike
Traffics running right through my house
There’s a dog that’s scared of a mouse?
There’s a cat who loves to bark
There goes David on Noah’s Ark?
There’s a monkey in the water
There’s a chimpanzee with a human daughter?
The world has gone completely wrong
“OH MY GOD” there’s a duck 
Singing the Barney song?
I got out of bed to my alarm
And Lord Jesus knows this world has gone WRONG!

I've really been enjoying your poem and the emotions and imagery were so vivid that i could easily picture them as beautiful illustration. I'm a commission-based manga/webtoon artist,and I’d love to discuss the possibility of bringing this poem to life if you're ever interested.
