A Caged World
A caged world
a global village indeed!
as while in school, we’re
warned of dangers of going global
for a big small village, but we thought only
of the passion and money, the beauty and trade
never before is man this caged, as
the wilds freely move daily activities, unconcerned!
never told to watch that one day
china would sneeze, the rest of
the globe would catch virus
and locked down for days, and deaths
would rise to the mount and graves swollen
never before is man this caged, as
the wilds freely move daily activities, unconcerned!
here we are today, this virused world
revolving around in this global village
of national borders closed, states closing theirs too
even local authorities banging theirs strongly too
never before is man this caged, as
the wilds freely move daily activities, unconcerned!
can this be end of our global village
as the lights in the village went off, from house to house
to your tents O’ Israel, as local authorities banged their doors
and the villages return back to their huts
or could there be another rebirth of the globe, as we know it.
never before is man this caged, as
the wilds freely move daily activities, unconcerned!
