To Squander Riches

Over the recorded span of human existence
The desire to know facts has been ever present
Scholars have aimed at a need to understanding
How the human tribes prosper, or decline
Distinguishing between dominant and resistant
Recognizing traits of cultures in high ascent
Understanding the traits decline of every type
Then they try to apply the lessons to the present
And wonder how the present world functions
In any other time with what we now face
You could only expect pure chaos
Disaster and catastrophes unleashed
Modern humanity lives for one thing
Pursuing a single ethos
They are dedicated to consume
Consume life in violent games
To eat beyond any sort of fullness
To desire whatever they please
Acting irresponsibly sexually
In general, they live without shame
And to live this way, in the modern day
Is to live with no understanding at all
Of the fact that they squander
The greatest inheritance of the ages
