Lapse of Judgment

A lapse of judgment
A pass of the eye 
A dirty look behind the back
Has our world come to this dismay
Has the word refused to work the ridicule out of there lives
Music and pictures show this 
The hate and crime 
profanity and ugliness
Why do we show these where anyone can it
That is a lapse of judgment
