Quagmire

“Love defines who we are as a species,” By Poet A quagmire is soft, murky land that shakes or yields under the foot, in other words, a swamp. But, one that is imbued with sticky mud, where progress is slow and soles get stuck. A quagmire is also a synonym for an unpleasant, constrictive situation, which is not easy to escape from. Look around, we are stuck in a swamp of greed and hate. A quagmire of our own making; progress is a by-product of war, innocent blood sticks to our souls. We are sinking into conformity; stuck in our ways change is strictly rationed to the masses; its introduction tightly controlled by a few. We are born as a cog in a system designed to extract our individualism and replace it with compliance thereby keeping us stuck within the very gears that keep grinding us down in society. We need to drain that swamp!
