Out of Sync

 

 

Out of sync

And out of step

Is the reason why

There is much regret.

 

A pretense to know

When we know it not

Is terribly misleading

And utter rot.

 

Out of sync

With the Creator,

Out of step

With the Saviour.

 

Inebriated

By the world’s offerings,

Intoxicated

And suffering.

 

Why do we languish

And why are we sick?

‘Tis the devil’s lollipop

We currently lick.

 

Out of sync

Due to a false reality,

Out of step

The new normalcy.

 

 

Out of sync

And out of step,

Overboard we’ve dived

Into the murky depths.

 

Depths of lunacy

And degradation,

Depths of disunity

And segregation.

 

Where is God

In all of this?

Exactly where we left Him

When Him we dissed.

 

Hence out of sync

And out of step,

Our acute drunkenness

Breeds disrespect.

 

Pretending to be sharp

We’re as dull as a stone

Not even realizing

We’re rotten to the bone.

 

Out of step

And out of sync

We animatedly argue

We’re animal linked.

 

Our behaviour shows

We’ve stooped even lower

Having become

Wicked explorers.

 

Plumbing the depths

Of unexplored vice,

We are no longer men

And not even mice.

 

Primordial soup,

You’d remember the brew,

Well now it’s modern man’s

Vegetable stew.

 

We’re out of sync

And drunken with it,

Out of step is our purpose

And our daily habit.

 

I speak as one

Of the human race

That have fallen into a state

Of abject disgrace.
