The collapsing sun,
of a civilization,
once one,
engulfs the flame of the modern day mind.

Ignorance blinds intelligence,
and social stigma,
is irrelevant,
in a modern day world run by reality TV.

Modern day man smears predecessors,
but in the end,
supports their successors,
as long as they continue their reign of *******.

Nature suffers from a crippling disease,
modern day man,
brings her to her knees,
and beats her to death while wearing a blindfold.

We do all we can,
to destroy ourselves.
Modern day man,
we think all's well.
