As we willingly keep descending into anarchy
Sophisticated barbarism has become our reality
Take a good look at this world around you my dear child
Hell now is here on Earth, a place not meant for anyone mild
Corruptors and the corrupted, both us
Oppressors and the oppressed, both us
Observe the frailty in our social construct
Cultures keep clashing only to self-destruct
Governance and economy a thickly veiled hogwash
Gutters for the poor and mansions for the posh
An existence resulting in a horde of dullards high on media’s incense
Satiating our swelt tongues with cocktails made of sex and violence
Look at the world you’ve been born into my dear little one
You’re now expected to take part in their degraded fun
The ego and arrogance of our kind and species now knows no bounds
Hypocrites showering love through neutering and spaying our beloved hounds
Look at how they all deem it necessary
To interfere with nature via debauchery
We are nothing more than viruses with shoes forced to play a part
Having missed the entire of point to live with a kind and gentle heart
I apologise dear innocent child, but here are your pair of shoes
To wear and be productive as one of them, drained of all hues
As we willingly keep descending into anarchy
Sophisticated barbarism has become our reality
Apex intellectual species?
I think not.
