The Golden Era Part 1
Circ. 5,500 Years
Hasten to the drift
The cruel surge
Stampeding nowhere
Lost elsewhere
Herding somewhere
With everything is sight
What sleight
Deft choice of chosen fate
Fatal miss of fatted chance
Crowded minds
Rummaging ideas
Delivering sermon philosophies
Spooned belief
In nostalgic doses
To cure folly’s foolishness
With a loan, learning wisdom
For a today daring
The day after
Let’s walk the footprints
That brought us here
Perhaps the compass points
Will show truth, the culture,
The values, and order
Where lives are skin-coloured
And gold-sifted, banked
For a future, saved.
