Wasted Man In a Wasted Land

Wasted man in a wasted land He got no hope of survival Cos his country is highjacked By corrupt leaders Who never care about the benefits Of their people But their own selfish interest He got no job So each moment he is always On alcohol Drinking away his pains sorrows and agony There is no future for him in a wasted land Destroyed and devalued by his greedy leaders So he never mind with alcohol to get wasted Wasted man in a wasted land So many men are similar to wasted men They got no means of survival It too difficult to survive Under a tough and hard core leaders That really don't look after the common man They allow them to waste with out care Or support And they create desperate wasted men like the Wasted man in the wasted land

Take heart, wasted man. Be faithful. Jeremiah asked why the wicked prosper, as did David in the psalms. Good words in your poem, my friend, but God is sovereign, and we catch but a glimpse!
