There is a mood
That seems missing
In the public square
Morning lyrics ring
With truculent sounds
Unescorted
By harmonious echos
Discerning pundits
Wonder aloud
Why divisiveness
Holds sway
Where oh where
Has civility gone
Lost in a forest
Of greed
Submerged in
A sea of avarice

By harmonious echos
Discerning pundits
Wonder aloud
Why divisiveness
Holds sway
Where oh where
Has civility gone
Lost in a forest
Of greed
Submerged in
A sea of avarice
