Every kindness has a price All will suffer for being nice Loving is not something we do Nobody else should come before you All will take advantage of your kindness People will label you stricken with blindness Everyone kind will be taken as weak If you harbor goodwill, your future looks bleak Nobody just does good on a whim The fate of the world starts to look grim Nobody remembers how to care Some want to love but they do not dare Everyone has forgotten how to be good When given the chance, nobody would Everything pure goes up in a blaze Waiting for someone to change the world’s ways

What an insightful poem! yet, the Nice shall inherit the earth (Matthew something, new revised embellished edition). Jesus said that, you think alike, lets take the world back, one kindness at a time!
