So many scream and cry of the worst Those people inflicting hurts that bubble and burst Yet I’ve encountered ones who are much crueler Who invite madness and chaos by unmeasured rulers They are the many who never really care Whose emotional cupboard lay blank, bleak and bare Who raze instead raise their kids, like barbaric hordes of old And the kids grow to be monsters that don’t even know, That the many screams and cries that they’ve heard for years Are derived from the neglect that nested between their ears
And even the righteous can be blind to those things they left behind..
