Sonnet: The World Is Bad But Goodness Triumphs

Like birds of same feather flying together,
Like-minded men behave just like brothers,
In opportune moments, clement weather,
To favor some and bringing down others.

The world today is opportunistic,
And everywhere we see a nexus form;
Treatments given are never holistic,
And people tend to deviate from norm.

How rules are made and bent to favor some!
The wicked minds appear to rule the roost;
And men with weaknesses are more welcome;
And righteous men are troubled and out oozed.

But not for long as Nature sets things right;
Between the good and evil, there’s a fight.
