Why so much violence Why can't we find peace Why are you protesting causing so much destruction is that really better ? Breaking windows spraying hate upon these walls Your destroying people's lives your turning our city into a ugly ****** up mess How does that get your message across ? Grow the **** up and look up protesting see it's meaning are you reading the meaning ? It's about using your voice and standing up Your all acting like brats hurting others acting like bullies that's not protesting your not getting attention Your getting us ****** off I hope you get to feel the damage your causing You belong in a cell Where you can't destroy and steal and throw temper tantrums Where you can't spread your ugliness and we can find peace and find our way ahead It has to stop your not proving anything I know you must be stopped it has to end it's no longer about race or hate It's about adults who are acting like children You need to learn the meaning of protesting You need to build others up and help people see there is a way forward So stop just stop We can handle this You need to be taught a lesson and karma will handle you soon I just hope sooner not later © Jennifer L DeLong 🦏 4/17/2021

Protesting
I found seashells and driftwood, Cans and bottles and much more Like diapers and picnic stuff While walking along the shore. I found cigarette butts and bags And those horrendous soda holders That catch on sea life and twist them In their middle or at their shoulder. I saw palm trees and jacaranda Waving in the balmy breeze And broken plastic lawn chairs Leaning against the lovely trees. I found six-packer carriers sitting With all the beer bottles inside. I saw pieces of bicycles and big batteries And I swear I almost sat and cried. But I had too much to do right then Gathering up all that random junk. I carried them to a ******* bin And I threw it all in, kerthunk! I wondered for the hundredth time The parents these creeps had That let them grow so ill behaved, And so embarrassingly bad. What kind of selfish brat can come And look out on this lovely scene And throw their ******* all around? How can they be so mean? It makes me hope for recompense; That what goes around come again And we can stash these human pigs Into an appropriate kind of pen.

BEACH THRENODY
10 percent flee to tropical places drenched in trust-fund dollars taking life for granted with chrome plated bliss expelling brags with finesse while others choke to pay rent

thanks daddy
The children of today befoul Their grandparents with disrespect And nurture their own children With television shows and neglect. They don’t teach children to be kind And fail to teach them not to cheat. So they grow up morally blind Expecting to be paid to be sweet. These kids were raised defectively That hits it on the nose. When you treat them so neglectfully That’s just the way it goes. They grow thinking they can get Everything they desire. And when they fail to get their way They set the place on fire. Now we have generations of them Like hogs on the living room couch Shoving their faces greedily Like they’re a royal grouch. They ***** if they think someone Is getting more than they do. But ask them to vote differently And they whine they don’t want to. They never notice that they dress Like they did as in their teens. Football jersies, shoes untied Baseball caps and old jeans. They say the same old crap They used to say, not much new About girls, and the car they drive And what they’d like to do. These kids were raised defectively That hits it on the nose. When you treat them so neglectfully That’s just the way it goes. They grow thinking they can have A life of nothing but fun. And when they fail to get their way They go and get a gun. Ask them names of those people Got elected to represent. Most of them barely know The name of the President. They don’t vote, they don’t go Even so far as the local PTA. This is the American voter The kind we put up with today. These kids were raised defectively That hits it on the nose. When you treat them so neglectfully That’s just the way it goes. They grow thinking they can get What other people own. It’s like these losers found a way To live in the Twilight Zone

It’s common in the human race, They helped their son to death. Might as well have covered his face And robbed him of his breath. They gave him everything he wanted The dear child of their hearts. But their bestowal of gifts, a bit vaunted Were about them from the start. The parents wanted everyone to see How well they treated their kid. But when it came time to say ‘no’ They went someplace and hid. They ironed out the bumps in the road So the kids never had to learn What they should do when that road Takes a sudden calamitous turn. So, the kids, ignoring all good sense Listened to their peers instead And started finding external means To fill up the inside of their head. They learned life could be postponed And so could ever growing up. They could find some kind excitement In something rolled or in a cup. And who was there to stop their plunge Into a kind of lost weekend life? It certainly wasn’t their father for sure Or his confrontation-free wife. No, they didn’t want to **** the kid off Because that would mean strife. Let’s just leave the kid alone and watch As she meets her demise over life. It all started out when parents chose to Become their kid’s best friends. So, who was there to teach them things Like hard work and discipline? Who showed them the rewards to be found In learning to postpone gratification When they were sitting in front of the TV Grossing out on mental ************

HELPING THEM TO DEATH
You strip and scream in the pillow of your king size bed. Something about life being too hard or your girlfriend's unfaithfulness. Somoene's outside your door or maybe under the tree. They know what their future is and their prospects are bleak. 'I don't want to eat because I am so depressed. ' Well, how about handing over that food to someone who has been going hungry to bed. You are never thankful for what you have. Let's solve this without any animosity We all have days which are bad. I have seen the citylights I have seen the people cringe with the pain You and I know that this system is to be blamed. It's time that the government has shown their true face. Those schemes are probably gonna fail. Unclean water, improper waste disposal it's time we return back to our own morals. I don't mean to be abrasive but it's time we face it. The rich are getting richer watching poor men die You get the picture Divided by an imaginary line. Some charities are a scam '*Please help us fund the education of the kids affected by the floods. We have no proof where the money goes. Our logic is ****** ' Traffic lights changing colours Wait?  Did someone break that one again? That's a ****** No one knows where they are going as long as the cash is flowing So many around the world starve to death 'What the hell did you put in this lasagna? A rotten egg?' Your emotional security us important and so is your money. You can enjoy as many luxuries but remember to think of the less fortunate.
