Culture today
It is not remembered nor kept beside
True values have been lost outside
Like domino pieces they start to collide
Slowly we desert culture and say:” We tried”
Curiosity disperses as hours strike
Our mind doesn’t dream to reach the pike
Where a highly rational world once did exist
Now just ashes covered by unknown mist
The young mind is controlled without will
Words within art constantly stare at us until
A book is too hard to be studied and so
We leave it behind, far on the last row
Lost in time and space, details sadly beckon
New tools appear and we don’t reflect for a second
Do we read because we have to or to reach success?
Is it just a waste of time or even more than a bless?
Few are those who appreciate forgotten lines
And notice the beauty that purely shines
But the more they observe, the better they see
This world has changed; writing has lost its glee
Abandoned, a part of culture lays its wings in some of us
Who still cannot utter, there is nothing to impress
Applauding, a slight inanity laughs in our face
Thus, welcome to the reality that we lovingly embrace.
