An Absence of Diligence

Duped and juiced.
Pinched and squeezed.
Convinced with fed delusions...
A fix will mend these current scenes.

Economically depleted.
Philosophically tricked.
People are seeking answers,
As to what, why and who started this.

An absence of diligence.
No observations with common sense.
Entertainments galore to deceive.
With visuals to believe.

Duped and juiced.
Pinched and squeezed.
Convinced with fed delusions...
A fix will mend these current scenes.

Economically depleted.
Philosophically tricked.
People are seeking answers,
As to what, why and who started this.

But truth is not received.
