LIFE IN THE 21st CENTURY

My 1st attempt to write multi-verse diamante: about the horrors of modern living.

1.

Now

Hopeless, lost

Hurting, hating, harming

Dour, dire, dirty, depressing

Tearing, tormenting, torturing,

Helpless, wary

Today

2.

Living

Hungry, lonely

Hating, hunting, harvesting

Is there no hope?

Teasing, terrorising, torching

Harried, watchful

Suffering.
