Sonnet: Corruption –modern World’s Main Foe

A war is raging right across the globe Against corruption –modern enemy; The roots can’t be discerned by any probe; Most men are victims of this malady. The ‘virus’ enters genomes of most men, Producing havoc in their hearts and minds, And turns conducive, safe, secure haven; Then changing them for worse, it always binds. Corruption is the evil prime these days, And gains in-roads in every sphere of life, Affecting men, who lose their righteous gaze; Yet, people live in squalor and much strife! This foe must die if people must live well; If not, this world’s a veritable hell. Copyright by Dr John Celes 6-05-2015
