I'm concerned with the lack of common sense;
it's notably missing when needed most.
And though its absence comes at our expense,
nothing else can match it, not even close.
It once mitigated anger and greed;
lately, however, it's been a no-show.
I pray for its return in thought and deed;
if it's still relevant, I'd like to know.
It can untangle impossible knots;
after all, common sense overrides lies.
It's missing, so I'm connecting the dots;
maybe that's why anarchy's on the rise.
