What's happened to the world of late
Such crimes of inhumane and hate
Lives are taken so unmercifully
What has happened to our humanity?
I look around to see such lack of empathy
It's not a world I want to see
People dying everywhere
Now in this life it's humans I fear
And for such losses I don't understand
This was not gods intention
For woman and man
To destroy this earth & other humans
I can't watch the news anymore
I don't want to know
The acts of pure evil and the heart aching sorrow
So many people now don't see a tomorrow
No justice for them or their family's is done
A hatred for nothing
Blood spilled war which no one can win
How can their hearts bear such a sadistic sin
It's no world for our children to grow up in
What's happened to humanity
What has this world become
Killing of innocents with knifes & guns
What happened to truths after said and done
No United stand to be seen
Just talk of all controversy
Are you all blind?
Can you not see?
This isn't how people's lives should be!
Scared of being a victim of the news on tv
Worried for themselves and their family's
Life brings enough sadness without these tragedies
No punishment of our laws
Could ease the pain
But a life sentence for a life should be done all the same
no privileges for good behaviour should ever be allowed
In the evil crimes that they committed in private or in crowds
Some of 20 years locked up, that's not life
10 if they're good and cause no strife
How can this be justified?
Makes me sick to know these laws
Would this be justice to you if the loved ones was yours?
What's happened to this world of late?
What happened to cause such aggressive hate?

WELCOME KAY ~ Thanks for your first poem with mainly rhyming couplets and good rhythm. A very SAD but TRUE subject !. The rape of Planet earth & Humanity on every continent ! VERSE 1. is an overview of the inhuman behaviour all over the World. God created a VERY GOOD WORLD and Man & Satan & Sin has perverted it into a VERY BAD WORLD ! VERSE 2. I can't watch the NEWS either ~ it's mainly BAD NEWS (or FALSE NEWS !). I agree crimes against people are horrendous and the PUNISHMENT ~ no longer fits the CRIME. Without a deterrent Criminals will just get worse & worse ! Thanks for your concern ~ this is an empathetic site and most will agree with you. Yours BRIAN & ANGELA. Please check our site & Poems ~ Thanks B & A
Hi Brian and Angela.
Thank you for your comments.
I’m afraid all my work is rhyming couplets.
I've worked backwards through your works published on MPS today and i'm so pleased to see you also have a clout at politics in your poetry.
There are many many injustices for us to address. Looking forward to more from you.

Thank you Dusk arising
I’m really happy you like all my work
It’s intense sometimes but life can be intense right
