RANDOM JACK POETRY HOUR: LIFE SONGS
Desperate Hours
Hurling through the expanse of space
Our prospects dimming by the hour
We cannot turn the clock around
Building weapons extolling power
No one knows just where we’re bound
We are in the desperate hours
We live in fear of our fellow beings
Guarded communities brazen towers
Losing touch with beauty and grace
Natural wonders and simple flowers
Our lives slipping from our control
We’re in the desperate hours
O how we wish for simple pleasures
Our techno lives have turned us sour
We cannot live without devices
Our hopes now seem so dower
We turn around but it’s too late
We are in the desperate hours
