The Death of Compassion II
Fed 5000 people
In modern times
5000 people feed one man
He claims, bring all you have, your freedom inclusive
Follow me!!!
O brave compassion,
Quickly gone, forgotten
Written on sand
Blotted out by the wind.
A suffering father,
Broke, no work, stripped of everything!
A wasteful woman behind him
Destroying everything they build
I don't give a damn, she scoffs and bluffs!
A poor widow, grieving, weeping at loss
A greedy relation, taking over all
What of the orphans, and their welfare?
They should leave! He bloats and grunts
Like a pig screaming for life!
Brother feasts on steak behind the hedges
Fattens like baobab
Sister stands in the streets, craving for handouts
Thins like toothpick
It's civilisation, I for myself.
A powerless harmless child
A deranged callous elder to prey on her
A future destroyed before it's begun
Self satisfaction at play
Who will police the police?
A prisoner sitting in the dungeon, in rehabilitation
A court of sitting conspiring rich fools
Plotting they pounce and gnaw on the unsuspecting individual...
He'll see when he gets there
Let him open his eyes...
O brave compassion...
Dead and burried...

It's so sad how we are living in a so called secure world with so much insecurities.
It's more than a good piece Bre
