Some Things are Just Not Right
Some things
are just not right
like
left hand turns
thalidomide
puppy farms
and
napalm burns ..
No, some things
are just
not right at all ..
Like
swastikas
nazi salutes
Semtex
or genocide ..
Yes, indeed
some things are
just not
right like hunger
thirst
and whale culls
are just
not right ..
And like I said
before ..
Some things are
just not
bloody
right at all ..
Like
hypocrites
EU bureaucrats
poverty
bullying
and of course
Cancer
with a capitol C
in all of its
many forms
or torture ..
Oh’ and let’s not
forget
good old
Covid 19
Sunday trading
or WMD’s
and plagiarism ..
Oh’ yes
indeed
some things
are just
not right at all ..
Like nicotine
and cyanide
or LSD
laced margarine
corrupt MP’s
and plastic ..
No, some
things are just
not right ..
But then, they
must never be
forgot
and simply
cannot be
denied or ignored ..

Their not right .. a good writing .. if only things were different and such things didn’t exist .
in spite of my wishes, prayers and dreams, I can not imagine a world without things that are wrong .. .. thank you my friend for visiting again today .. Neville
So confusing .. the things that happen in this world .. when they shouldn’t
again, you are so right ..
No, some things are not right at all, but they are still with us. Danger lurks. Some dangers we can avoid, others, sometimes, we cannot.
that's a whole lotta truth DV ........ and fits squarely on this page .. thank you my friend .. Neville
an important write, dear Poet!
this
a listing of murderous
intent
and divisive, hate's
sinister, roots..
no
we must never forget and pretend
that they're all some nightmare
form a past
far removed
from our daily reality..
like
how the world press, pretend
Ukraine, is the only active war
on our planet
when in reality, its just the one
that's most profitable
to report about...!
yes, we must never
forget
and deny those harsh realities
of life..
By jove, I think he's got it .................... Neville
That list is significantly versed as an implicit warning that so much recorded evil needs always to be in the front of our minds .. An explosive reminder that such actions and attitudes are no way to gain love and peace - - - thanks a load for this write my friend.
Just had to get a few things off my chest .. nothing more but certainly, no less ... ta F .. N x
A fine write N.
An extra line needed? 'Orchi's singing will never be right!' heehee.
thank you for reminding me, I just added a couple of extra's .. I'll let you off this time Mr. O 🙂
No, not right at all. The list could go on and on.
I feel we must srtive for the positives whilst dealing with the negatives and heap praise upon the do gooders in life.
It would be nice to think we learn from history's 'not rights' but sadly we see repetition taking place.
Yes absolutely .. things just go round and round & we never seem to learn ... thanks DA
Dear Neville,
You’re so spot on with your thoughts that you’ve inked for your readers. Much to ponder upon…
Thank you for sharing.

and you my lovely are the little ray of sunshine these words and I both needed .... 🌻

I admire the way you sculpted this poem. It's like one long thin line of things that are "just not right." The morally and wickedly corrupt. The terrorists and the evil in the world. You summed it up wonderfully.
Cheers
Rocky
At
Least
I feel
as though
my ink
has not
been wasted

That was a fantastic write by you dear N.....I can't think of what isn't right most....probably when people just look the other way and live their lives like things aren't happening when they could do something about it, like child poverty, or anything to do with children for that matter! Good solid write!
I just can't thank you enough C ..................... and believe me, I aint kidding ......... N x
the words of someone who wishes not just to gain wisdom but teach the wisdom they've learned
I seriously like the cut of your jib sir .. not only a welcome visit MR.apocalypse but a much appreciated one too .. thank you n truly tooly .. Neville
And can I add cancer - - and yet there is so much good in the world - another poem?
You can indeed, and so it has been my friend .. in fact, I dont know how 'it' was not there in my first publication, it most certainly should have been and I have since now posted a more inclusive & comprehensive version ... Neville
Totally resonating on those lines…something’s totally not right…from drugs, explosives, violence and war, corrupt bureaucracy to hypocrisy, opportunists to greedy politicians… so well said dear Neville…hope they extinguish faster…
if I could fire the lot of em I most certainly would ... I might even go down in history as the great fire extinguisher ... 🙂 N x
You are SO RIGHT Neville. It got me thinking about many wrong things in life. A great thought provoking write.
that is so good to hear. thank you kindly Roz ... Neville
