It starts and ends with you! - Original Poem

Hush now and stand idle,
this pain won't linger,
not for long!
Take a deep breath and be strong!
No need to cry or suck or finger!

The world we live in has gone mad,
one look around is quite enough
to show you how,
us, the mighty humans, have fucked up!
Oh, boy! Where do I even start?!?

Brainwashed by media and screens,
always on a quest for more,
unsatisfied, unhappy and often
unavailable to see others' pain,
constantly craving likes and thumbs up,

We can no longer tell the good from bad.
Pandemic hits and paper's off the shelf,
everyone's acting as if they are twelve!
Warning! Proto-titles and protro-trones
are not meant for the single neurons!

It all starts and ends with you!
