World of the Mannequin

World turns cold as hearts go numb
Intelligent ones slowly turn dumb
As passions fade so do inspirations
Bringing down many great nations
Things turn colder as apathy reigns
Not even life flows through our veins
With lifeless veins under cold clammy skin
We've turned into the world of mannequin

this flowed along nicely for the most part. i think there needs to be some punctuation in some places because otherwise it just distracts the reader by thinking there should be one. you also have a typo with brining. i think your use of not having so many words helped the poem with his power. good job overall.
