******* children of a sordid affair
Between corporatism and consumerism
Enslaved by the shackles of misinformation
Sinking each year baser yet
At the speed of light
In the information age
The world is eclipsed
Tangled in a worldwide snare
of fast-food conversation with men in space
and yet deaf to the voice
resonating in the space within
If I screamed and cried in space
Would they hear my voice?
But if I screamed and cried on earth
Would they hear my voice!
