This is just what is on my mind, please bare with me.
The falcon cannot hear the falconer;
Things fall apart the centre cannot hold;
Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world,
The blood-dimmed tide is loosed and everywhere
The ceremony of innocence is drowned;
The best lack all conviction, while the worst
are full of passionate intensity
And what rough Beast, it's hour come round at last
Slouches towards Bethlehem to be born?
William Butler Yeats "The second coming"
