Ole' Times

The good ole' times: 
I didn't know they were good 
Until they were gone
And replaced with a Trump, a pandemic and a world war.
The before wasn't perfect
But it wasn't collective chaos
It wasn't all good 
But it was peaceful
At least compared to now. 
I never thought I would miss small talk
And pointless dinner parties 
And personal achievements 
And hobbies, and New Year's celebrations
And boring news on TV. 
Give me more of the good ole' days 
Before anxiety went rampant 
And tyrants ran the world 
Give me more of the good ole' says.
The good ole' days. 
​The good ole' days...
