What happened?

A Poem by Shannon

Excellence is irreleveant to this day and age
sucking up, and having fake friends is really all the rage
what happened to honor?
What happened to pride?
What happened to laws that EVERYONE must obide?
What happened to the bird, who had sung at my door
What happened to that stately raven, who croaked "nevermore"?
What happened to the wind, and the trees and the sky
What happened to the kind stranger who merely walked by?
What happened to the way, that things used to be?
But most importantly.....
Whats going to happen to you and me?
