It makes my stomach churn
this awful waste of life,
young and aspiring people
taken down by guns and knives,
how could this continue to happen
here on these London streets,
they often seem to be
victims of postcode killings,
which is an obscenity
in a land where everybody
should be free to walk any streets.
it’s all about disrespecting
but the greatest disrespect of all,
is to take away some body’s life
with no compunction at all
and for such a flimsy reason
or for no reason at all,
shot and missed the target
and someone innocent falls,
these people call themselves soldiers
but that’s a ridiculous fact,
they are just killing fellow youngsters
in what is a cowardly act,
fire shots from a passing vehicle
or jumping them and stabbing them,
when they are vunerable
and least expecting it.
It makes my stomach churn
to see them killing their own,
fellow human beings
who are also struggling
the same as them,
facing the same pressures,
it makes me sick to my mind,
that we live in such brutal
and totally callous times.
