Some food for thought:

Take a glance
at the world around you:
The picture of a sad dance
people crying too.
Whay do people hate
people who are weak
and cannot break a plate
and end up on the street?
Why do people think
that people doing drugs
are nor more than a fink
and do not deserve hugs?
Take a peek
at the land beside you:
polluted by a freak
and rapists and murderers too.
Why do people wake
to find thier children dead?
Why can't people take
themselves away instead?
Why, why, why
do people stop and say,
"It's not good to sigh,"
or "It's a happy day."
No day is good
people always die
like the movie "boyz in the hood"
and people always lie
What happened to our land
I can't really say.
It used to be so grand.
I'll think about it one more day.
