Discontent

The world's on fire and the news is despair Stench of the apocalypse fills the air Racial tensions, border disputes and cultural crusade Immigration, separation, seems 'tis a bed we remade Demonstrate into conflagrate, identity theft makes the rounds And social media allows opinions without grounds Shooting up each other, our school's new lesson Now we can conceal without license that Smith & Wesson Pick your country, seems most are headlining the ill Now more than ever we need a stronger will With even weather being threatened I wonder if we can weather This generational discontent that we've fostered forever
