Madness

In an age of madness, to expect to be untouched by madness is a form of madness. ~ Saul Bellow

Nothing prepared us for this global pandemic

 

The number of dead is staggering

 

The number of stupid alarming

 

 

 

Economic disaster in some sectors

 

Unbelievable prosperity in others

 

A melting pot of mutant virus, greed, and selfishness

 

 

 

What have we learned, what do we know

 

Reality seems elusive, madness has overwhelmed

 

As we launch deeper into the golden age of stupidity

Bravo my friend these are such truthful words and is a indictment on this day and age we live in. With complete knowledge at our fingertips it astounds me that so many continue to choose ignorance or intelligence. Lies over facts. Hate over love. It says more about them then us.

Hello Carlos, thank you so much for your visits and the sharing of your thoughts. In my home we have a term for "them" we call them the unwashed herd.

I like that term it definitely best describes these people who are filled with nothing but hatred in them. It is a pleasure to read your work. Thank you so much for sharing your art with us.

Likewise Carlos, lately I've not been able to paint or write much, this crisis has me feeling off and deeply sad.
