The Standard


Everything
Like the length, mass, volume
Even the wind speed
Your hair color, intelligence
Or how fast ice melts

Everything and anything
That human beings deal with
Has a standard set up
By which it is measured

Except when it comes to morality
Most people resist any and all attempts
To accept any standard
By which they live

Anything goes
Like the ship lost in the sea
Absolutely clueless
Of what is right from wrong

At the end
The society as a whole
Will end up in absolute
Chaos and self destruction

Not because there was no standard
It was there all along
But because humans
Resisted it
