Thoughts

Steria Nicole 2004 (Rumphi)



If old times were back,
From the quiet bed dark
To the present and on track.
I wonder what a lifestyle we'd got back.
Would the youth still be this careless?
Would immorality be taken still thoughtless?
The world being so reckless?
Letting the evil be, and the guilty be faultless?
Alas! What a mess we are living in.
An upside down world, even tertiary scholars are in
