Convince Poem by Phillip Nine Mafunga

Just convince me
That calmness still holds in this future
That all the high tech advancements aren't another deadly bubble
That we will find psychedelic therapy in politics of lies and dishonesty
That humanity will ride the wave and be humane again

Just convince me
That this binge and carousing craze is but a passing cloud
That the Bible will be a book to be revered
That the preacher will pull no punches nomore, like them of old
That people's hearts will melt and tremble at the mention of His Name
