Is This Progress?
We watch the world turn
With collective intentionality
Watch the world burn
Rationality’s a fallacy
Individual choices
Can equal public woes
Amidst a plethora of voices
But that’s how the struggle goes
Trying to sift through
What’s knowledge
What’s not
Does it help to go to college?
Or does it make us more distraught?
More and more we specialize
As the game becomes complex
While we’re exposed to special lies
From one leader to the next
Politicians and the rest
with 2050 projections
But no guarantees of success
With successive elections
No telling where crisis lurks
As we progress through the haze
Yet somehow we say it works
I can’t help but be amazed
