Still Hope

Some shows on television contain volcanity,
especially when you hear them using a lot of profanity,
makes you wonder about the medias inanity,
and what happened to the formality and morality,
the mentality is insanity and mundanity,
especially the ones entitled reality,
meanwhile the news with all the brutality,
the morality gone with the breaking news fatality,
thank God there is still hope for fragile humanity,
most people still have urbanity and vitality.

It was pretty difficult for me; for others like yourself it could be a piece of cake! Good luck if you write one Freddie! P & L~Che

This is a great poem, Cheryl. Tough challenge! But, I'm going to have to disagree. I think we're past the point for hope.

I guess I'm just trying to be optimistic; although at times I feel like were at the point of hopeless return myself...we certainly live in unpredictable times my friend! Thanks for kind and pretty realistic comment Daniel~Che
