Moral Decadence In Our Society. Poem by PROMISE ITA OKPOHOUDEME

Moral Decadence In Our Society.

They were giant rocks in the earth,
In those days of worth,
Crystal lakes flowed in the daughters of men,
And to them, they bore children,
Eagles not chickens,
And the right spirit strived with men!
They lived here before great and renown men,
They broke through before us this Sodom.

There's a screen beyond all hairs,
Who watches the wickedness of then and now,
And the continual multiplication of thoughts,
Evil and good shall stand erect and bow.

Time is a mighty deceiver!
Regardlessly flying above dark and grey,
The moulder shall destroy who he's moulded,
Will there be another time for this nudity?

All wrongs to morality shall not decay!
This maltreatment to privacy shall all pay,
Both man and beast,
Creeping things and fowls,
In the multitude of this tender mercies,
In the wrath of consuming fire.

What's this anger on this day
Speeding legs to sorrowful graves
Evoking thunderstorms on the hairs
With no homely carpet to lay?
