Factual,
Actual,
Realism,
Being pillars
And modus operandi
It was good
Good was good
Flawless and defendable
Tomorrow was tomorrow
Came in technology
Fast tracked life
Surf the globe within a second
Love was love
Funerals were sacred
People kept secrets
Then, it was real!
Marriage was unique
Forests were vital
Education was symbolic
Journalists were celebrities
Society revered teachers!
Mai Teacher!
Relatives were relatives
One got respect
It was earned not bought!
Hard work paid
Villains were laid
Religion was strong!
Those times,
When love was love
Relatives were real
Miracles were insignificant
Time was slow!
But now, flying!
Taste has changed
Education was education
Cars are now cruising
Relatives vapour
Tactics suddenly change
Significance change
Like the rotating universe
What was is no longer
What was no longer is!
Goal posts ever shifting!
Genetically modified!
New dynamics
Hope erosion will not erode us
The past is no longer there
The present is hebind
Heroes chained.
Puppets heroes!
Sweet now sour?
