Keeping Up With Society

How does an old man as old as me Keep up with the changes in society Men can be women, old men can be girls Pronouns can be mx or they, or hers Abortion is healthcare through faces proud Is said by the bearer who echoes the crowd The word “marriage” has changed from the ancients Is nothing pure? Is nothing sacred? Positive and negative no longer are compliments Now we’re the same cos no need for supplements Sport now reflects the querying of boundaries Like robots obeying we are and non-binaried All whites are oppressive without a choice Everyone else sings in harmonic voice. The floodgates opened in 2014 Homosexual marriage the new morphine All institutions now deceitfully captured So called progressives buoyantly enraptured The decline of the west has left me behind But eternal truth is on my side.
