RUN TO THE HILLS

All about is a nightmare
Everywhere is a disaster
All and sundry will go under
Heaven or hell
Let us not ponder
For life is draining
And no heart grows fonder

Stratagems and fresh alarms abound
That seek to wreck our much needed sleep
As we peruse the next ungodly tweet
That is a mixture of hate and deceit

Nothing is easy to decipher anymore
Our conscience must dig deep
Bringing inaction to the fore
We try not to holler with laughter
For so much blood letting is a bore
Its madness we know
But rhetoric will go on for much more

Interactions constantly displease
Murder is the new pandemic disease
The earth can’t swallow all this unease
Who is able to offer release?

Fights always causes us to despair
Quarrels leave us with no one
We can call dear
We have shed so many tears
We now feel empty
And just wish to sneer

Rumours wreck more than ill-will
All in all we give the devil
A delightful thrill
Wars empty humanity of blood
Catastrophes silence all
But they are already numb

Hatred is the total sum
Of all these incessant noises
That make us all so glum
Controversies make us cynics
We never admit to know
Any raucous fanatics

Nothing exists that will amuse us
Grievances are forever getting
Way out of control
Boldness of indifference
Is how the story will be told
Lambasting society is
Not new but old

Opinions and schisms cause outrage
That is more than hyperbole
Morality will not take a stand
Psyches are now blatantly bland

We are now irresponsible trolls
Anonymity we think
Makes us kind to those we scold
Who have no platform
Where their stories can be told
The internet now causes
Such a dismal loss of your soul

Tricks and cheating now
Bemuse us everyday
Only the ungodly are not upset
By this disarray
A comedy is our infinite fear
We summon our gods
Who are too close to nirvana
To ever hear

We live for tragedy
And that is not insincere
One death follows another
As we stand and silently cheer

Insecurity often leads to acts of terrorism
Idealism causes fanatism
Religion relieves us of fraternity
Theology is upside down philosophy
No one has the skills
To set us free

One day we won’t be here
Today we live in constant drear
Tomorrow is never thought of
All in all we couldn’t care

Send in the cavalry
For Armageddon is drawing near
Bombs will explode
To defuse all
That is unclear
Say your prayers
And shed no tears
