It's Getting Quite Disturbing

by A.N.M. - Pisces

We go about our daily lives
Doing what we do
Trying not to think about
The bubbling evil brew
That any day a bomb could blow
Each day could be our last
Cause all around this world is hate
And it seems coming fast
Like some unseeming virus that
Is overdue at last
Never is a "perfect world"
There's always some unrest
Anger, jealousy and such
Cause wars and wreak the TEST
Of what is our humanity
And we all know the rest
Conflict, fear, the fear of death
So often cannot catch our breath
Like children in a scary place
But as adults, we wear the face
Of "All is well", denying fate
Insisting all is good and great
Cause doing other-wise would be
Too hard to bear
Too much to share
We must make task
To wear our mask
God help us now
And teach us how
To be strong amidst
This coming blitz!
