A State Of...
A lack of unity
no kindness in return,
with a plethora of things
we sorely need to learn,
fearfully living
while living in great fear
sounds like a state of western hemisphere.
~
"Focus challenged"
in everything we do,
so self-centered
we can't see what is true,
no enrichment
so our future is unclear
sounds like a state of western hemisphere.
~
Traveling elsewhere
towards the great disdain,
but, with ourselves
we quietly remain,
we can't go home
without first remaining, here
sounds like a state of western hemisphere.
~
So on we shuffle
towards the unsuspecting dawn,
there's no one home
but all the lights are on,
we've no reflection
in humanity's great mirror
sounds like a state of western hemisphere.
