Breakdown

“There are no human gods here, just hoods who think they are.” ~ Fakeer Ishavardas

Everything is spiraling out of control 

What are we doing

What’s the end game

Is anyone at the helm 

Are we just shuffling deck chairs on the Titanic 

Reality seems flawed 

The brushstrokes of our creations are violent 

Ugly and menacing 

This depth of depravity seems entirely new 

And out in the open without any afterthought 

It's on display at all levels 

From the highest seats of government 

To the local homeless encampment 

It seems to have infected humanity 

How does one come back from the brink of devastation

This madness is being sowed on all four corners of this globe

government appears heartless, humanity homeless...and all of us mad.
You write the nation's soul at this very moment in history, Mary.
Good stuff...shame about the inspiration...I wonder if and how we will ever come back from that brink.

Jacob, we live in dark heartless times and these days may pass but the damage to our souls is perhaps something that we can't come back from. Thank you for taking the time to read and share.
