Culture

Saturated streets of crumbled ancient inheritance, 
Forgotten history condemned by our corroded eye,
Dresses that no longer dance, words that float without significance, 
Colors that no longer have a meaning, Culture? What Culture? You can not cherish what 
does not exist. And you can miss something you never had.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
