The Future

What will the future be like--
If conspiracy theories abound,
Wild rumors floating around
And people believing nothing
Is as it seems, no truth found?

If not carefully cultivated, truth never sprouts... And in a society savaged by murder, theft, adultery, and blaspheme, truth may well want to hide underground. ~ Gershon

Well, perhaps, but I'm saddened to think that truth isn't strong enough to rise above!

Yep, me too, Shirley, but I'm afraid with social media being so influential this might be the future we face.
