A LOT IN MY TIME

A LOT IN MY TIME

A Poem

The days of honesty are far gone,

The days of morality are no more;

The days of peace are far gone,

Days free of mischief are no more;

But my time, oh my time!

I've heard, and seen a lot in my time;

Men, craving men in my own time,

Women, craving women of my time;

In my time, culture is forgotten

In my time, true respect is forgotten

Youths craving for leisure in my time,

Extortion is rampant in my time;

Good men, still exist in my time

Only few good men survive in my time;

My time, oh my time

I've lived a lot in my time;
