It spreads fast

by Dagmar Wilson   Feb 21, 2018


I don't think I can let it go
not any time soon
loads of worry weigh on my chest,
are my grandchildren next?.

Heros are laid to rest
another one dies due to a self inflicted gunshot wound,
these are children, their lives has already ended.

The quality of life, a human's life
wiped away, tossed aside,
it's almost like a virus spreading fast.

They stick their heads in the sand
claim they were appointed by God,
what do you expect from a psychopath ruling the house.

    Such sad times we live in, Dagmar. People's lives are just rubbish to be tossed to the wind.

    Take care

    Miss Dagmar,

    The beauty of your writing, is that is comes with your heart and the truth in our world today. the suffering and pain, through power and money is so outweighed in society.
    A sad and truthful write.
    Much love and warmth
    Michael :)x

      Thank you so much Michael as always. My granddaughter she is in middle school there was a situation. Her mom and I are terrified to watch her leave in the morning. But just look who is in charge. They are promoting it.
