My first real poem, and still one of my faves...

The Once Future Past

Everyone's asking the same question
But the answer seems too hard to find
I'll just watch us go through this recession
And I don't think anyone will mind

Laziness evolves into apathy
Procrastination adds to the problem
Involvement in ones own democracy
And a riot of thoughts that will mob them

Confusion now feels like normalcy
Everyone's always in a rush
War's now are only diplomacy
And the murmurs have all turned to mush

I'm standing in the middle of nothingness
In the center of what was once there
Translucency translates to filthiness
And I'm wondering why no one will care
