A lament

As we edge towards a brink

the ledge precarious and shrinking

we allow the risks to grow

and follow strategies unthinking.

On the path to dangers end

we seem unable to revise

the thoughts we have inside our heads

and so we live within the lies.

We form our habits in the fictions

and with ease we play along

we balance endless contradictions

knowing much we do is wrong.

We feel the pain of horrors guilt

and yet we fail to change our ways

and see the kiltering unbalanced

in these twentymental days.
