What Now

What’s it take to panic,
Lose faith in real’ty,
As if all the rules you’ve been living by,
Are now just history,

You turn to people you once thought were foes,
Out of desperation,
One’s instinct for survival trumps else,
In the face of your elimination,

Your reason gets thrown out of the window,
Along with your self-worth,
Like a blight has wiped out our entire race,
On this foresaken Earth?
Ain’t that funny,
To end like you were born,
Thrust into life with no capacity,
To default to anything but forelorn.
