Shades of Grey
Abundant shades of grey
Along my way into the city
On full display hypocrisy
The gravity of modern living
One million heated caves
The lighting dots the landscape
Absolved from ancient cares
Within the lairs retired from frenzied motion
Inwardly indifference soothes our minds
All entrained by light and sounds
Outwardly the tepid coexistence
Rife with boundless apathy abounds
Race we round about distracted
Endlessly most filled with doubt
Modern purpose cannot fulfill us
Overdue to find another route
