Corruption

by ~Black*Rose~   Oct 10, 2005


We have a government,
what good dose it do?
If they are Cheating, Lying, and back stabbing.

Aren't they the ones who are suppose to bring order,
not cause it.

What good dose it do to go to church,
you go to be forgiven,
have your sins cleansed,
you can make believe life is perfect.

Then you walk back into reality,
A filthy world of violence ,poverty ,nudity , and profanity.

Our nation is in trouble,
everyone is sitting back and watching,
As the world around them is crumbling,
They don't care,
it doesn't involve them.

Do you know what is causing this?
Its not war,
I'm not talking about Terrorism,
Its not even a natural disaster!

Its mankind!

we are killing our selfs,
and each other!

    What i liked about this poem is that it is so utterly true, mankind is slowly killing itself and i think your poem expressed the ways in which it is killing itself very well. Another brilliant poem in my thinking
