Quatrain of Rampant Ignorance

Rampant Ignorance - it is everywhere

With ignorance rampant throughout
the world, how much
longer will
civilization
last?

We are taught on a daily basis,
mistruths and deceitful
narratives - falsehoods
continually
passed.

Ignorance is an infection, slithering
from gene to gene, easily
exploited by those
who should know
better,

Bewildered carriers continue on without
ever knowing we are not as smart
today as we were when
knowledge was an
asset, not a
debtor.
