Stupefaction devoid of action

Just a mumble and a sigh;

When vain is our reaction,

When we do not dare try-

name the wrong to turn to right;

Summoned to the tattered news at night

 to contemplate the hour fly,

Our sullen brains entertained and abused

By every beautifully groomed lie;

Hail and showery rain,

Pricking tunes of minds insane,

Like gravity devour our wits

in crazy and synchronized fits;

Conniving and ignorant at mix

Playing the most foul tricks;

In Lebanon the state is blank {    }

Calamity veiled in uniform prank!

played by fools in formal dress

turning this place to a big disgrace,

to an utterly fatalistic mess.
