The World Is Self Destructing

The world is feeling pain now.
It's not just 'over there'. 
Tragedy is striking and
it's hurting everywhere.

From bomb blasts to tsunamis, 
now another hurricane.
Theres so much devastation.
In the end what will remain? 

Has the whole world just gone crazy? 
Do we see what's taking place? 
The world is self-destructing
and we have no hiding place.
