The more I see the world

I can burrow myself in a warren
I can hide in a cave
The world finds its way to me
Wars, massacres, murders, tortures
Climate change, people dying,
People flying their homes
No longer safes 
Trust is breached continuously
Betrayal reigns supreme
To sustain someone's greed
Corruption is everywhere 
Lying is the new black in politics
Everything is twisted beyond its meaning
And still people believe in higher powers
Exploitation and slavery are back
The needy and frail are maltreated
Beyond any reason
I can definitely state with Jane Austen
The more I see the world 
The more I'm dissatisfied with it.
