Notes About The Poem

 

 

Steeped In Tears

I see a world steeped in tears of sorrow, there is so much bigotry, greed, and hate, that I fear what fate awaits tomorrow. As politicians scam you to donate, corruption flows like an open floodgate. Depriving women of having a choice; fascists and evangelists share one voice. The uneducated support a fool, and both political parties rejoice; the poorly informed are a useful tool.

These things can take a lot out of a person. You need to let it go and relax, my friend Emile.

Emile the people that were doing the fireworks were throwing the lit fireworks at people. A baby carriage got hit with fireworks. A lady running to her car got hit by fireworks. It is not safe to go to a park any more. I believe that fireworks should be banned. My friend enjoy your evening. Darlene/

Hello Emile, yes our world is filled with hate. Why it is this way , i do not know. Hate is such a small word with big meaning. I wish the world cloud live in piece and not pieces. Emile i do not know how your Canada's Day went. But where i live I would never go to a park ever again. At victoria Park were fireworks. It got out of control.
