INTERESTING TIMES

Interesting times we’re in
Disparities blaring
Hypocrisy glaring
Where do I begin?
The law that was flaunted by some
Is now enforced everywhere
But no sympathy was to be found
When other's tears were shed

Interesting times we're in
Ignorance praised
Expertise hazed
Stupidity for the win
Someone actually uttered these words
"There's more to life than living"
Every city has seen a spike
In those talking more than they're giving

Interesting times we're in
Incompetence ruling
Business retooling
Truth, daily fighting the spin
Love of money is leading the charge
To sacrifice others instead
Of putting oneself in harm's way
There's no "only" when counting the dead

Interesting times we're in
Motives exposed
Everything closed
Time now to attend
To kids--you don't "watch" them, they're yours
What you started, you can resume
Excuses you raised before
Demand you sing a new tune

Interesting times we're in
Homebodies content
Extroverts lament
Introverts chill and grin
Everyone's facing the fact
That a lot can be done differently
A world back to the way things were
Isn't what everyone hopes to see
