Compelling times

Compelling times in which we live

Where the rich hoard and the poor give,

Where to few people are unable to forgive,

Baring grudges and demonstrating hate

In left wing, right wing, white and black states,

Division is created within the place,

Of love and unity that should be overriding

Leaving families, mother’s, children crying,

Innocence seems be lost today

Seen more as collateral damage to our shame,

In this whole wide world in which we live

Compassion is being sucked away down one big sieve.

    Seems like our leaders are spending so much time squabbling instead of solving our problems. Both sides are blind to the suffering.
