Material World

life for humankind sucks,

no matter what needs are provided

 

the good are the good

 

the bad are the bad

 

the ugly are the ugly

 

that may be the beauty

of the Christian ethos,

a fallen humankind

may never get over

their brutish nature

 

life sucks in a material world

 

with or without it, rich and poor,

the religion is here to stay

 

two-thousand years of

staying power or not,

 

marketing ploy or not,

 

a life depraved is a

true number sentence,

now and onward

 

elixirs distilling and

instilling hope will

always sell in the

best of times and

the worst of times

 

humans are easily duped

and being educated about

the bad ones emboldens

the bad ones further

 

the negative sells because

the negative nature exists

 

and the Christians figured

that out before the computer

even came to be

 

so no matter what,

being a sheep is never

to equal to being a simpleton

 

that's the truth, cold and hard

Holy truth Batman... damn that is what I call giving it to us with no sugar coating...

humans are easily duped
and being educated about
the bad ones emboldens
the bad ones further

the negative sells because
the negative nature exists

These parts really hit the nail on the head.

Thanks, Dale. The double-edged sword called technology inspired this one.

I hear you there... sometimes i think the bad is beginning to out weigh the good.
