Our moral Compass has gone astray,

replaced by a mere ashtray.

Surely you exaggerate, you say.

I wish it were any other way.


Truly, Spaceship Earth has lost its way,

and wanders aimlessly in dismay.

It flounders on the dark shoals of space,

bringing woes to the human race.


We're lost in a sea of lies, you say.

Yes. Lies, lies, lies are all we hear today.

Why must it be this way?

I fear they're here to stay!


Insanity, insanity! What else could it be?

If life is illusion, then death is reality!
