Will It Make a Difference

Mister ex or Misses why either one just makes me cry violence in the streets another child just took a life our leaders hard at play the everyman has lost his voice but is there anything left to say left or right either way we're wrong we need to change and get along cast aside in a timeless deed sits in place looking out for greed does it matter will anything really change will life be better or just rearranged shots fired in the afternoon lives tossed aside I'll be home real soon

Here's where we differ. There is a lot left to say. And say it we should. Your last line says it all. Especially the "I."

I can only wish everyone the best. I feel strongly America will be okay. The split will mend.

The French say that "The more things change the more they stay the same!" so do not expect miracles my friend, Tim! An insightful write!

Indeed a scary situation when the everyman's voice is taken and violence exceeds...Yet all some people in power seem to care is power and greed..Powerful post.

It's the signs of the times my friend. Remember reading about the dark ages? Not a whole lot of difference is there. Good job here. God Bless and remember to pray for all of u. JB

It really doesn't matter Tim, I'm afraid. It's all about power and money, the rest of us who don't fit that realm, don't matter. Nicely expressed.
