Nil Decorum Lingua - NaPoWriMo 18
Upon looking back to the vaunted past
wherein language beheld itself
in a stiffly formal manner
stringent in such chastising structure
to approach a matter by complex manoeuvre
in order to maintain sensibilities.
lest such wording offends.
And then compared
to modern lazy trite
rushing to mere grunts
and primal sounds
so unbothered by form
and just shit scrawls
compared to using a varied palette of the past
May the gods make sure this doesn't last.

we have a very complex way of communicating singularly and at a group level one on one communication is much different than the horde who is usually speaking despair to us humans I've noticed it and the masses don't even know the part they play in passing the negative message... yet if you pay attention you will see it I think...this is very thought provoking...
