The Real Enemy

There is an enemy among us all
This one is what will cause humanity to fall
It creeps in our children's lives
It takes your resistance then it thrives
It moves on to spread its campaign
If it is not stopped it will reign
All it takes is one try then it owns you
The government turns its head so it is kept out of view
Drug dealers need to be put to death
What if it was your child breathing their last breath?
