Modern Sins Poem by Syed Anwar Yarkhan Jilani

Modern Sins

Rating: 4.3


Today our Society
Disbanded the age old
Sins ignore and admit
Envy, gluttony, greed,
Lust, pride and wrath
Accept of modern psyche.

Current seven wonders
After grueling research
Across continents and years
Believe is a shocking stock:
Binge-drinking, tax evasion,
Bullying, domestic violence,
Bigotry, racialism and to
Kill for superiority.

Racialism the supreme depravity
In a modern makeover,
Not necessarily of religion,
Opened our eyes to largest
Issue of strong public feeling
Ignored by the Devil
And politicians.

Man's inhumanity to man has always been the problem and continues to be - good one.

A very good write. A voice of the conscious people unheard by the politicians and religious leaders is depicted in your poem.
