The OMG Society

The OMG society
devastated by the superficial,
over-reacting to the mundane,
worshiping the worthless idol
aspiring to mediocrity.

The fog of triviality
hides life’s substance.
The chatter of the inane
drowns out any hope of salvation.

Voices making unintelligible demands
for more mediocrity and settling for less.
And the spiral of decline spins ever faster
while the senses are dulled on the anvil of stupidity.

Life’s drip of discomfort continues unnoticed
while the pursuit of hollow gold rolls on through
the hall of smoke and mirrors,
as we succumb to the new bench mark of humanity.
