"Nothing Changes" (by Joe DiMino)
Nothing changes
Especially us people;
Though more or less
We advance, digress
Shift percentage,
Shabby, better dressed
Lighter, darker
The ending of a name
Yet,
Nothing really changes
And always God
To blame
Down with organized religion!
Nothing changes:
Floods from rain,
Huge run-off from
Melting mountain snow
But never reaching
the dry
Every dryer planes
Nothing changes
The weather cyclical
For naturally, but when God
Should get the blame
Man-made global warming!
Despite new leadership
The tyrants of yesterday
Cast out, a new leader untried
Placed on towering loft
Now tried
Proven, lied
Still, nothing changes
And never will
Not one significant part
Till man changes
His/her
Own lazy heart
