Abscam,Watergate the Iran Contra affair polititions seem to be... appearing in midair. Religious sin and corruption... seem to fill our world. Welfare lines, genocide,low-income housing galore. People scared to leave their homes... cause gangs are everywhere. Cemetaries are overflowing ... with people that are poor. As I lay me down to sleep... not wanting to awake. Bill collector's ring my bell... screaming don't be late. I guess some people understand... the frustration I must feel. However, the suffering of a human life bring some sick people thrills. I try to rationalize these things... but nothing makes much sense. Am I insane or is this... the real world we live in?

Same world, just more publicized than before. It's like advertising for tampons or kotex...same feeling. And then the amateurs get involved and it is repeated as truth.

Thoughtful poem, well done.
