Best Politicalcare Poems
We live in a world
Of violence and hate
They say they can stop it
Can't they see it's too late?
They missed the big picture
By ignoring the small
Because of their ignorance
This society will fall
Children will starve
People will die
And when all this happens
Who's going to cry?
The ones who ignored the signs
And called them a lie?
I don't think so
They don't care now
They didn't care then
If they won't care after chaos
Then when?
The reason being, “do or die”
When leadership has failed
No longer can sleeping dogs lie
While the masses feel impaled
When leadership has failed
Helplessness becomes the norm
While the masses feel impaled
They act in fashion true to form
Helplessness becomes the norm
Until a rally cry is heard
They act in fashion true to form
All who care must hear the word
Until a rally cry is heard
No longer can sleeping dogs lie
All who care must hear the word
The reason being, “do or die”
