Modern Melancholy

The green cypress trees

fields of tulips & poppies,

brought that terrible beauty

now lost and unforeseen.

Expelled from paradise,

left without a choice

We have been numb,

filled with agony and joy.

Forced to embrace humiliation & violence

meanness has seeped into our souls,

We've drifted far until we realize.

We are the inhabitants

of the modern world,

ugly chimneys & polluted skies.

A ridiculed life is as now,

surrounded by despair

misery and incessant sorrows.

Looking out for somewhere sublime,

Melancholy brings a sudden peace

from the ugliness of human tragedy.
