Is no longer vital, but drained
Ask yourself how easily are you entertained
Is your focus upon food or competitive violence, is it purely sex
Are you being distracted by what, by who and why
Bread and Circus?
Perhaps we've fallen, so far from the reach of our addictions
Never question the embrace
When our passions lead to a nation's suicide
Our ability to strive pales
Those who fail, fall behind
Never able to thrive, failing
Never survive
