Nosedived Poem Example

Change

Down into the valley of socialization
Societal vices thrives without limitation
In my city, moral has worn the clothes of 
civilization
It's value have nosedived into the pit of 
humiliation
There both male and female feast just like 
the beast
Meanwhile you cant resist the cyst
Cause it has covered both You and I

Today, shame has no hidden place in our 
heart
Our conscience is driven away like a sport 
car
The fume from the exhaust we applaud
But you know carbon mono-oxide is lethal
Yet we claim its civilization
Wont this kill You and I

Nakedness is an act of being naked
A product of shamelessness
The society is helpless because our mothers 
are less concerned
'Flaunt it. You've got what it takes'
Thus: she praised as she catwalk down the 
stricken street
At adolescent she conceived and bore a child 
of no father
Will this not affect You and I

Truth...why are you pleading for it
It has been long buried beneath the six feet
As you can see, corruption triumph more in 
our societies
From kids to parents,leaders to followers, 
home to abroad
It has diffused through the earth just like fart
But no one cares; all we care about is NOW
Change the only factor that has remained 
constant
Will you not change before the story is told to 
You and I

Killings, suicide bombings, cheat, treason, 
occult, lynching,
Kidnapping, indulgence, Nuisance, violence, 
hypocrisy et al
Are all bored of corruption
End time is not close; Jesus Christ is not 
coming today
But one day, you will wake up and find 
yourself in hell or heaven
If we don't choose to make the world a better 
place today
Wont this affect You and I?
