Modernity Poems - Poems about Modernity

A madman pushed me off the track, lucky not much harm I sat in the Hospital waiting room with just a broken arm. They handed me a form to fill, 20 genders, 10 types of race - I tore the sheet with my good arm and walked out of that place. I walked past a park, a man dropped...

Our lives have become so simple Yet stress and anxiety are at an all time high We’re overweight and depressed Extremely offended most of the time We’re wealthier than we’ve ever been We have more food than we can eat We’re metaphorically and literally fat We can't see our problem, nor our feet We lack perspective All of our hardships have been taken...

In so many words Let the beast take form Let verse arise out of chaos Let the tides shift In favour of harmony Blessed are the meek Tinged with sweat They have wrought science from paganism Blessed are the misbegotten Holy art thou not? Implored to act in favour of thy nature So we children of this new age What have we in the name of the...
