Does Anyone Care

In wayward march of civilization unthwarted, nature’s delicate equilibrium gets destroyed. Global warming follows the footprints of progress, extreme climate events wreck vulnerable population. Does anyone care? Radical indoctrination drives the pliable psyche to the blind alleys of infirm insanity, stained by the blood of the innocent, as society suffers from misplaced dogma of faith. Does anyone care? Born equal under the grace of God's own sky, the children of destiny don’t see the sun rise, walk lame life in gloom of poverty and deprivation, in the dark night dreams die before they’re born. Does anyone care? The snapped fabric of frail human bonds and values builds bare islands in the seamless sea of loneliness, ravaged by the tempest of self-seeking pursuits, the tides of time washes away bliss from the soul.
