Law and Order
The rain drips another story for us to see, to think about.
How must we get through this fog that has settled?
A nation divided is not a good thing as the rain pours upon us.
Many people want to be heard, yet some do nothing but shout.
The problem lies with lack of law and order that has come about.
Violations were allowed with destruction that ensued.
Where is the one to condemn this ongoing lawlessness?
We have laws for a reason to maintain peace on our land.
But chaos continues as the sun sets and justice fades with it.
Criminals are empowered by every move, every fire lit.
Still no-one standing to say, this is completely unacceptable.
This is not the way as it only leads to harm and dismay.
The answer waits for action, to restore law and order today.
