Analysis of Lost Humanity



Another year has come and gone
and nothing new has changed;
virus's are spreading
and have made the world deranged;
People are sick and dying,
the hospitals are maxed;
everyone is arguing,
to be or not be vaxed;
money's getting tighter,
homes are being lost;
humanity is fading,
is that the final cost?;
the life we knew is gone now,
how much longer will we last
before we all just crash and burn.
