All Have Failed

For they have failed to fulfill the yearnings of the citizens after election, Poverty stares them in the face;confused,bemused and abused. For they also have failed Hoping to find solace in correct reportage,but instead they paint the front of newsprint with falsehood. Who could they turn to?confused,bemused and abused. Even with 'Dirty-pure' garments they have failed, false prophesy and vision,just to add to their rotten pockets, Creator watches;ants and mice silent;confused,bemused and abused. We have all failed to maintain the good course of nature, Moral decadence,selfishness and covetousness reign with impunity, Parents neglect their duties,Families in disarray for few golden coins, Our future is in jeopardy.Pollution!terrorism!war!,Oh,God!
