THE EVENING NEWS

What’s wrong with the world today
And the silly games people play
Money, power and greed
Using people is now the way
 
Too many people looking to easy street
Thoughts of a quick buck can’t be beat
More and more crime does pay
Always finding victims to cheat
 
Divorce, abuse and starvation
Favorite topics of their nation
Looking for answers in the bottom of a bottle
When will there be salvation
 
Another senseless killing
The statistics are chilling
Guns and knives in every corner
Buying and selling lives with no feeling
 
It’s not hard to see
Their world falling apart in from of him
Turning from channel to channel
Will they ever be free

written 1999
