Redemption Poem by Alex David

The world seems ugly
down and trodden.
A sight of chaos
dark and horrid.

Blinded by our senses
we fight.
We want it all.
Success, is what I want.

Ready to struggle
All your life.
For God’s sake, can’t you see?
What‘s not right.

Virtues have vanquished,
truth undermined.
Good deeds
now a mere tantrum.

Messiahs and Prophets
are for the past.
To wait for someone
is no more an option.

Act, act now
for all your sins.
For redemption is all,
that there has been.
