Oases May Be Rare - Acrostic Sonnet - Revolution Near

Rating: 5.0


Retirement benefits will soon descend,
Endangering stability, - mankind
Veers sideways in a trance, and, undermined,
Our brave new world begins a downward trend.
Links with the past shall shatter soon, or bend
Under as the world wide web unwinds
The skeins of change, - which double bind. We’ll find
It difficult free garden plot to tend.
Oases may be rare, - who’s foe, who’s friend?
Now some who felt ahead may lag behind.
New chains are ready which could tighter bind
Expectant masses – few themselves transcend -
Awaiting sign apocalyptic to
Retract from all that “freedom” preached as true...
