A Different Kind Of Speaking

Poems by Richard Moomjian


Proverbs 9:13

This modern age
Is folly
Falling down
And loud
Torn open
By the ground
Genetically engineered
and manufactured.

These are the side effects:
The sophisticated jeers,
The synthetics
All this seductive talk,
A mere anesthetic.

And softwares
Wear everything
But softly,
Knowing all
Yet no one cares-
We know nothing.

This modern age
Is all pride
And folly.
