Then and Now
I reminisce, I miss- now day by day,
old-fashioned values that have disappeared.
Past times supplied more logic to conform
to standards made quite clear to understand.
What was taboo, is now approved as good;
what was approved- dismissed as old-frontier.
The state of modern times shows a new view
on what is now considered right or wrong.
These current days provide much less to weed
full confirmed rights from self-assigned virtues,
or what is best to fight or now support.
I reminisce, I miss- those clear-cut rules.
