Viewing our world as one nation,
I see it is suffering from broken communication,
for we're always plagued by anticipation.
It is no longer what I can do for you,
it is what you'll always do for me,
now you're telling me this is how it honestly should be,
whatever happened to the best things
in life are free?
Men and Woman fighting in a war,
families are losing their hearts more and more,
we're told they are fighting for a 'Cause'
it's not a cause....it's a cost,
for everyday a lot of innocent lives are being lost.
Forever judging each other by color, race or creed,
saying or doing whatever need be,
for most are fueled and controlled by greed.
If we continue on with such distasteful deceitful lies,
there is only going to be one guaranteed surprise,
we will all have played a hand
in bringing our own world to it's demise!
Linda I. Weischedel
