Humanity

A Poem by Gerry Legister
"

A positive look at humanity and people from every nation

"

Applying aspiration and disillusion,
Modernism exhibit blissful mirth,
In commerce and religious myth,
Society drunk with sexual duplicity,
Dismissive of all moral chastity,
The compelling gaze of humanity,
Driving nations further into the fog,
Preparing for Armageddon like maggots,
Eating away rotten minds from the core
Earth lay sparkling on the fire.
Tarnished with desire burning with desire,
Goodness and mercy sipping from the cup,
This forgotten age of humanity is burning up,
Pleasure fleeing faster than light,
Individuals losing the bewildered fight.
Depravity of humanism rising higher,
Global temperature getting warmer,
Bringing to roost end time explosion,
Couple with terror and derelict derision,
Sensing the past has no future obligation.
People with baggage, misplace from every nation,
Find their way to wealthier lands,
Hordes covered the clouds like sand,
The result of mixed community,
Swamp the forgotten age of beauty,
With lesser grace darkening prosperity,
Mere time looks upon humans kindly,
With the compelling gaze of mystery.
