Why is life so bitter ?
Why is living bland ?
Why ignore the suffering
Why not lend a hand ?

How are humans so cruel ?
How many more must die ?
How can we make a difference ?
How can we stop the lie ?

When will the hatred stop ?
When life does not remain ?
When there is nothing left ?
When the last of us is slain ?

In a philosophical mood when you wrote this Bob, or was there something specific that prompted it? Why, how, when indeed.

Three o'clock in the morning Wazza and I'm thinking just as I wrote.


Never could understand how cruel heartless and uncaring some people are.
