Jennifer Proxenos Poet Acrostic

Corruption As Lethal As Corona Virus

Corruption and Covid 19 both a virus raiding our planet,
Only socialism works as in Finland in Scandinavia,
Realistically corruption has bankrupted countries, quad tripled poverty
Ruined our God given bountiful earth, brought it to its knees
Utopia that is just a mere word no country has it,
Perhaps Iran and America will go to war and we get caught in the middle,
This corruption has become insane, Russians itching to do the same,
Integration of all colours creeds and nations essential, poor and wealthy alike
Only severe repercussions will result if we don’t take action now,
Nothing seems to erase this filthy greed which has become so obtrusive.

Paulette Calasibetta April 18, 2021 at 7:43 AM Hi Jennifer, your poem about corruption certainly delivers truth!!! Excellent work! Take Care, Paulette

Sara Kendrick April 18, 2021 at 4:43 AM Humans who have the wrong motives cause the corruption, humans who are filled with deadly bottled up emotions then release them with weapons are who kill, and abuse of power in government causes angry outcries of the citizens. Somewhere we are not teaching our citizens what they need to know when it comes to proper handling of emotions. I enjoyed reading your work. A work that speaks of the times in which we live. Sara

Victor Buhagiar April 13, 2021 at 2:11 PM On the premise that this poem is a contrast of two evils, one cannot but say what a great poem you wrote. But the are other things that are lethal: war, hunger, abortions, killings, rape..the list is endless.
