Do We No Longer Care?

Why does it happen! 

A submarine is lost, 

Five wealthy people 

Lost their lives. 

Yes, it is a tragedy 

But why does it gain such headlines? 

They did it because they had money, 

And money is important, 

Important in the news! 

But off Greece a boat capsized, 

With maybe hundreds killed, 

But that just becomes no news 

As those with money 

Make the news! 

Is our world so dreadful 

That five rich people dying 

Is more meaningful, 

Than hundreds of poor people dying! 

What is happening to our world? 

Do we no longer care?
