My Own Little World

Why are so many people 
So ing rude!
They all feel so entitled
With their “IT’S All About Me” attitude!

Disrespect has replaced 
Common courtesy and good will
They would rather give you the finger
Or worse attack you or even kill!

How have so many hearts 
Turned so evil and black,
Is it a growing sickness?
Or a sense of humanity they all lack?

I’ve now become a cynic
A distruster of mankind 
Am I the only one who see’s  and feels this?
Is everyone really that ing blind!

No more love or compassion 
For our so called fellow man
It’s replaced with greed for money and power
And  everyone who’s not part of their plan.

So I now live in my own little world
Where I am away from their greed and inhumanity
Where I am loved and respected
And away from all their ing insanity!
