"Madness"


Lost amongst the glow of LCD's.
Counting cyborg sheep to sleep.
A single byte in a petabyte of code.
Caught behind a firewall of selfies.
Blue dresses and red coffee cups
Causing an overload on the servers.
As the real issues are swept away
In a flood of false posts and memes.
Logic and hope are now a fantasy.
Anger and ignorance breeds wildly.
An empty clip is the path to infamy.
While the real heroes go on ignored.
We put stupidity on a glass pedestal;
The cure for cancer locked in a cell.
Skin keeps getting thinner and thinner.
A solitary word cutting down to bone.
The world connected by digital veins;
Our hearts are grossly disconnected.
The clock of war keeps ticking down.
One trigger pull before fallout happens.
Ending in a sky full of mushroom clouds.
The cold war is now burning intensely.
No longer between two super nations;
Between everyone regardless of creed.
When will all this madness finally end?
I pray before it all ends in a bright flash.
