Falling Signs For Nations

Browsing through history Observations reveal A nation bound for depravity Loses its political will In degeneration of morals In language erosion Departing from the spiritual And absence of direction Engrossed in much hatred Breeding violence Not of peace instead But discouraged citizens. Focusing on wars Investing in costly weapons Decline is not very far Power blinds a nation. History has an ugly way For itself to be repeating These visible signs today Show many countries falling.
