El espejo fragmentado del presente/ The fragmented mirror of the present 🪞

En la arena de la opinión, donde todo saber es vano,
El eco engreído se alza, dogma en boca de cualquier humano.
Se dictamina el universo desde el púlpito de la nada,
Y la humildad, muda, se ahoga en la marea alborotada.

En el teatro cruel de la apariencia, la luz es un disfraz,
La etiqueta es la sentencia, lo auténtico queda atrás.
El brillo de lo efímero, joya hueca en la ciudad,
Oculta la esencia marchita, la falta de honestidad.

Donde el corazón se ha helado, mundo sin amor, estéril y duro,
La ley del más fuerte impera, el triunfo del pillo es seguro.
La sombra del engaño, astucia sin escrúpulos ni fe,
Es el cetro que rige ahora, doblegando al que cree.

En la gris geografía del idiota, la virtud es un error,
La valía del bueno se silencia, ahogada por el clamor.
La autoestima noble, sin voz ni estandarte que alce su grito,
Mientras la necedad se aplaude, en un ciclo infinito.

En las palmas de las manos, brillos de una red virtual,
Donde las almas se confinan en un mundo digital.
Se acumulan los "me gusta", trofeos de vacío fulgor,
Pero el abrazo se olvida, y se enfría el corazón.

En la esfera gélida sin empatía, el mundo sigue su giro,
Indiferente al dolor, sin un gesto, sin un suspiro.
Aunque el alma caiga al suelo, hecha escombros y desazón,
No hay mano que se extienda, solo fría desconexión.

In the arena of opinion, where all knowledge is vain,
The conceited echo rises, dogma in the mouth of any human being.
The universe is ruled from the pulpit of nothingness,
And humility, mute, drowns in the turbulent tide.

In the cruel theater of appearances, light is a disguise,
The label is the sentence, the authentic is left behind.
The brilliance of the ephemeral, a hollow jewel in the city,
Hides the withered essence, the lack of honesty.

Where the heart has frozen, a world without love, sterile and harsh,
The law of the strongest reigns, the triumph of the scoundrel is certain.
The shadow of deceit, cunning without scruples or faith,
Is the scepter that rules now, bending those who believe.

In the gray geography of the idiot, virtue is a mistake,
The worth of the good is silenced, drowned out by the clamor.
Noble self-esteem, without voice or banner to raise its cry,
While foolishness is applauded, in an endless cycle.

In the palms of the hands, sparkles of a virtual network,
Where souls are confined in a digital world.
The "likes" accumulate, trophies of empty brilliance,
But the embrace is forgotten, and the heart grows cold.

In the icy sphere without empathy, the world continues its turn,
Indifferent to pain, without a gesture, without a sigh.
Even if the soul falls to the ground, ruined and distraught,
There is no hand that reaches out, only cold disconnection.

  1. So true. We live in a ‘robot age’, where true feelings, empathy, and warm hugs seem to become a distant memory. Not to mention that helping hand when we need it the most. – Thanks for sharing such an important and thought-provoking message! ❤️🔆🙏

  4. Right out of the Bible appear similar words but with less attention to the daily details as expressed accurately here. Iniquity does abound and the love of many shall wax cold. But we have One that is closer than a brother and we that endure with Him unto the end, the same shall be saved. May God bless you in Jesus name Amen 🙏

  6. This should be required reading in every high school with discussion led by a suitable moral teacher to try and counteract that philosophy of life in future generations. Unfortunately our selfish world is careering to that point where morality is no more and the great God of heaven will then intervene to remove this disease so it doesn’t spread to the rest of the universe.

  7. Un poema profundo y certero, con una mirada crítica hacia la sociedad actual. Denuncia con fuerza la superficialidad, la pérdida de empatía y la vanidad que se impone sobre la verdad y la humildad. Cada verso es un espejo que refleja el vacío moderno, donde el brillo sustituye la esencia y la conexión humana se diluye entre pantallas.

  13. Your poem mirrors the quiet tragedy of our times—truth lost in noise, hearts dimmed by illusion. Yet within your words shines a reminder: awareness itself is a kind of healing, a spark of humanity still alive. 🌍

  15. Me gusta pero ser espera! Muchas personas de luz en el mundo si tu miras. Estas deficil ahora — los personas con poder tiene ricos tambien y (make the rules). Sorry, that’s as far as I got with trying to explain why I still have hope. I like your poetry. Evil is very loud. And even though Light whispers, there is so much more light and so many more good people in the world than evil. It’s easy to forget that when we look around because evil is everywhere. When good people combine their light it can drive the evil back into their holes without violence. We do it by picking one good thing to do a day (like smile at someone — that’s so powerful) and do it every day. I hope you don’t mind my opinion. Con sonrisas, NF
