A Vicious Cycle
Destiny made, people died, and Death still feared
 Some strangle, some fallen, and some even speared
 There’s no end to this cycle, there’s no end to dying
 Many crying, many screaming, yet none smiling
 Hearts broken, families shattered, and still it never ends
 Minds boggled, minds played with, there’s ever so few who can tell
 Cancer attacks, disease spread; these are all things people dread
 Thousands born, millions dead, hundreds alive
 Disasters caused, assaults done, the leaders arrive
 Guns fired, knives thrown, murder’s gone by
 Bodies laid out, bodies stacked high
 Oceans turn red, people slain, and governors shot
 Some are buried, and some are left to rot
 The world has changed, bombs are shelled, and nothing is left to be mended
 People can’t be trusted, and so the guns are befriended
 Wealth, fortune, greed, and money have taken control
 The present is over, the past is behind, and the future is gone through a hole
