decimate

civility declines as vitriol rises
hard to know where to stand
on sands that shift into decline
of both reason and rhyme
sense and sensibility decimated by
the intractability of those
who see no difference
between debate and debasement
who mistake courtesy for self effacement
who disregard our shared humanity
seeing only us vs them or you vs me
