APATHY
The smell of death is in the air
Violence and destruction loom everywhere
The earth quakes with fire and fear
Why don’t I care?
Power and greed corrupt the spirit
Those who rule enslave the mind
People rush like they are running out of time
Why don’t I care?
Freedom and justice are dead everywhere
Our rights are suspended and tossed in the air
Prisons become homes for the forgotten
Humanity has become totality rotten
Why don’t I care?
They come for us one by one, in the dead of the night
No more to be seen, no longer to fight
Now the hour is late, and no voice matters
I did not care
Rev. Andy

Great, poignant and to the point poem.
Indifferencer is worse than hate.
The timing is chosen with true insight into our situatin. Some speak of "Endtime"
Great job again.Thanks for sharing
