Drowning In A Daylight Nightmare

 
 
Where are we heading  
Human nature helplessly wondering  
Mother Nature hopefully warning..
 
A submerged universe
By a torrent of floods curse
What is coming hope not worse..
 
A world of less and less meaning  
For all those on the surface floating  
Solid grounds nolonger touching..
 
To what is occurring inside unaware  
Unable to see the gloom and void in the air
Drowning in a daylight nightmare..
 
Trapped in a web of wealth and profusion  
Full to the brim the sight in confusion  
Bathing in fathomless wells of delusion..
 
Where is your balance if I dare ask
Why in a fake glory you still bask
When will you wear off your dehumanised Mask ?
 
The Lighthouse for so long deserted
Its Light and compass inverted
The human mission there is simply averted..
 
A universe of less and less essence  
Thrown into oblivion its inner balance  
Wholes falling into holes of decadence..
 
Minds seized in captivity  
Souls stained in their Beauty  
Bodies withered in passivity..
 
Human bonds with iron fists ruled
With velvet gloves Man is fooled  
In Humankind decay well schooled..
 
Detached I keep observing  
Absorbed I am suffocating  
Involved my voice spilling..
 
Would I to life flow surrender  
Stop considering the offender
And being a determined defender..
 
I am but a word devotee
Addressing every bel esprit  
In my heartfelt poetry..
