Yellow sunnies

Crazy sunnies in bright yellow frame,
Glasses that brought young Corey fame.
To take them off? A definite "no!"
They are the focus of his deluded show.

Interviews daily on national TV,
Throwing parties for the younger G.
Drink up, we are having a ball,
‘Text all your mates' was his call.

Noise drove the neighbors crazy,
Litter dropped, they're just too lazy.
Then they spill out onto busy road,
Smashing glass as the liquor flowed.

What does it say when this young bloke
No sense, no ethic and flat out broke,
Became the prime news in our nation?
Face and sunnies shown on every station?

Why would traders give him new clothes?
Their fashions broadcast and exposed?
Why promote those sunnies and face?
Why reward actions of such disgrace?

The mighty buck drives our world,
The flag of fortunes is unfurled.
No matter the ethics once displayed,
We justify, focusing on fortune made.

There is a truth here that touches us all,
Without God's restraint we stumble and fall.
When Mighty Dollar o'er our nation reigns,
Bad ethics become increasingly unrestrained.

 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Corey became big news in Australia after he organised a major gate crash at a teenagers birthday party. Several hundred uninvited guests arrived and havoc reigned.

Next day he is on TV, and within a week businesses are showering him with thousands of dollars worth of goodies. A promoter had him organise another party, and he still pops up on the news quite frequently.

My question to our society is simple - 'Why reward bad behavior?'
