By LemonChaos

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Isn't it a wonderful world we live in todayHate and killing, destruction and fearIsn't it wonderful how a kid can't go out and playWithout the risk of getting raped or killedIsn't is wonderful that psychopath killers roam freeThey can live next door or share a backyardIsn't it wonderful, all the violence on TVNo, it doesn't bother our childrenNot until they think it's ok to killNot until they go out and buy a gunNot until they shoot you in your own homeIsn't it wonderful how they can get drugs so easyIsn't it wonderful how they dieIsn't it wonderful how there's AIDSThat kills thousands a dayIsn't it wonderful how anyone can get itEven innocent people who do nothing wrongIsn't it wonderful, all that's going onIsn't it a wonderful world we live in todayI was sitting in my room thinking of what the world is coming to, and this is what resulted from that. I hope people will begin to see what they have done to Mother Earth and all that lives upon her. Written & posted in October, 2000.
