Poem: Complacency

Daily Dose of Philosophy

Photo by Jean-Philippe Delberghe on Unsplash

Complacency rules our everyday lives, For what we have we take for granted. We complain of things that matter not. We hide ourselves in our own cocoon. For empathy, we giveth by a teaspoon. For it’s not always opportune.

Many of us live better than kings of old. Yet, many more forget the lessons taught. We are quick to take and quick to forget. Yet, when reality hits, we hide again. We cry unfair and drink our champagne. For we fantasize of being noblemen.

We forget, what’s given can be easily taken. We ort to appreciate what we have. For the time may come when all is lost. What we have is better than what has been. We ort to find our discipline. Do not forget about your kin.

Thank you for taking the time and reading my poetry. I hope that you enjoyed it. Stay tuned for more from the Daily Dose of Philosophy.
