Frustration, anger, irritation

the building rage that plagues our nation

Forgetting what is right and true

not living by the golden rule

Love and compassion pushed aside

so easily dismissed, like the tide

Caged people we are, in our minds

unyielding is our stand on life

Thinking we are always right

living in unholy light

Forgetting where we first began

living on this wondrous land

The kindness of our hearts have failed

the fight against the jaded tale

The curse upon humanity

to give the same as you receive

The fight to hold the good inside

seems to fade with passing night

We look upon the world today

heavy hearts filled with dismay
