Depths

Everyday I feel

I have seen the worst

World won’t sink

More deeper than this

There’s nothing left below

For us to dig

And I sleep at night

Quite at peace

Thinking the worst

Has been done with

Maybe tomorrow

We may rise above

But then by the time

Noon has not gone stale

We learn they have

Sunk some more

To depths never thought

Or dreamt before

But then as Einstein

Has said before

Human stupidity

Has no upper limits

It seems fanaticism has

No lower limit
