This is your world
A world where words wear woolen wraps
To cushion offenses hitherto known as craps
Emboldening culprits who should wear shame
…on societal stages
II
This is your world
A world where perfection pushes people to make ups
To points where recognition hides in binoculars of the higher ups
Making natural beauty pale to those
…who must wake up
III
This is your world
A world where hardwork heckles sluggishness and loses
Setting a precedence that confuses
Messing with minds of the masses
…in their growing stages
IV
This is your world
A world where immorality wears moral shoes
Home sense needs outside clues
And stupidity serenades sanity to sail
…into the abyss of sleep
IV
This is your world
A world where weirdos wear heels of rights
To step on norms to cause many frights
Breaking laws into segmented opinions
Forcing perspectives into many unions
…to wreck havoc
V
This is your world
A world where material things house love
Which is fought for like Jesus’s baptismal dove
Only to be trashed
…when the walls of materialism wear sneakers to take off
VI
This is your world
Where abilities need artificial capabilities
Or will end up as mere calamities
Forcing suns to fall at the feet of wilting grasses
…shattering self esteem like broken glasses
VII
This is your world
A world where impossibilities live possible lives
Truth, in lying waters, dives
And commotions dance cutely
…on tongues and in actions of the capable
VIII
Can I say then that Satan now rules as your God?
God wears disdain as a loss?
Man hails wickedness and drags the cross
…through dung which births more filth?
IX
This is your world
Learn to live in it or perish
Wherever your rays fall, do cherish
For a little thing, can your reputation tarnish
Leaving you as empty as unused waste cans
X
This is your world
This is your world
A world where weariness wean not
Survival is hard fought
Breath is but a death away
…away from taunting living
