A Tapestry Of Trauma

Shaunmatthewcpoetry

Street lights painted in blood-red horror,
No shame and no honour,
Leaders hunger for power
Can you blame the alcohol pourer?
What about the cocaine snorter?
Lifespans are getting cut shorter,
Stabbings and shootings on the corner,
A tapestry of trauma.

    A painting of human savageries always present but now more visible with media coverage. Nicely done in so few words a powerful message
