Daytime falls short of what you deserve,
Nighttime brings absence to what you observe,
Dreading sleep but you're failing to wake up,
You take a selfie of a half full cup.
Digital wording is adverse to life,
The pen was a spade, a meal and a knife,
Narcissism escalates without an end,
When your god is your addiction and the trend.
Ever more anxious and of age afraid,
Half less unhappy on the day you get paid.
Needing validation for doing right,
Compassion exists just to hide your spite.
Your love of nature projects a true lie,
Love what you ignore as you duck and walk by?
Belonging to earth but you're losing touch,
A rabbit snubbing meadows for a dirty hutch.
You pay subscriptions for all of your flaws,
Sitting on your sofas, following your laws.
Sanctioned science and political squawk,
Has replaced the will to look where you walk.
