Modern world
The rain comes down incessantly
The snow joins the conspiracy
Emotions hung out to dry
Moisture seeps in and takes hold
The world cries
Tears roll slowly down misled cheeks
Revolution of spirit ignites in certain quarters
Popular rule dictates the day
Western world lies down
Patiently waiting for burial
The sadness of lies misleading
The truth always heartbreaking
Society buried in broken promises
Society worth nothing
Where has kindness gone?
Since when has humanity become so cold?
Not enough places at the table
The communal feast bereft of flavour
Trestle tables filled with nothing
A pretend meal does not nourish
The truth fills only chosen belly
The masses go hungry
Lies hold no value
Missing information like missing spices
Does anyone notice?
The rulers are still eating
