BLINDED

Happiness comes and goes,
rumors spread like STDs,
and the air is as thick as mud.
What’s the world turning into?
Young kids having kids,
married people having affairs like New Yorkers catching taxis.
Is this what our world is coming to?
NO substance,
NO faith,
and NO hope.
Cars,
clothes,
and other material things are not everything.
Open your eyes and see what is really in front of you.
Babies dying,
starving people crying,
single mothers struggling because of unenforced child support,
and thrown away Veterans not provided with the help they need to get over what they seen while defending their country.

child support in au is enforced, Its done throiugh the tax system when you go to do your tax return any money thats returnable gets automatically debited. so alot of people don't claim there tax cos its not going to come back.

This poem is an eye opener...very true...immorality is like a trend now a days...worst is some people are proud and nonchalant about it...

Poetry is not a turning loose of emotion, but an escape from emotion.

T. S. Eliot (1888-1965) American-English poet and playwright.
