Zeitgeist

Social media on fleek 
Prolific likes and praise we seek

Knowledge of 'SELF' is as distant as a stranger in the night
A nomad in a dark, desolate land so void of divine light

Social distancing is now a central theme 
Incomplete sentences, text messages, and mindless memes 

Faces covered, beckoning all to join the masquerade 
Only weary eyes of confusion while a life of exuberance abade

Mumbling music signifies obfuscating thoughts
Shiftless artistry made popular, creativity not wrought

Stored seeds in Svalbard
No questions or concerns yet humanness is being marred 

Food shortage hovering over us
Monsanto disguised as Bayer but still no justice 

Delta variant in the air
5G and fear emitting everywhere 

Take the 'Jab'! Come on and indoctrinate
Don't be an outcast, participate 

Hitting more 'LOUD' and becoming more quiet
Desensitized from voices of inspiration when instead there should be a riot

Smart devices in hand appear cool 
Stooped over postures and slanted information, what a fool

Vibrations so highly enticed
Welcome to zeitgeist
