Bust up on the street

Mar 16, 2017

There is a bust up around our street tonight,

it broke out in to shouts and then a fight,

people running everywhere

some people clearly running scared,

and other were in pursuit,

hard to make out who is who,

a female screams and shouts

as her boyfriend takes a clout,

and as they take off into the dark.

The voices of the pursuers harshly shout

warnings and curses of what may happen if they comeback,

and as i sit wondering what can this all be about,

that’s caused so much aggravation and pain

to make people act this way,

soon the peace and sanity returns again

as everybody drifts and fades away.

But the repercussions will surely continue on

for nothing is truly ever done,

until some one gets hurt

or maybe even worse,

why can’t we learn a little tolerance,

why can’t we just all try keeping the peace,

why is that we feel the need

for anger and violence to be released.

It’s the savage beast inside us all,

it is the rival, tribal, rebel call,

That lingers deep with in our soul,

that we have to learn to finally control.

Find the love,

find the peace,

and one day we may finally find some harmony.
