Poetic Verses

This Crime

It is quite evident and the statistics has shown for a time
That theft has been projected as the main type of crime
As people believe that they have an entitlement to what they desire
And this must happen not caring about who will have displeasure

But what could be responsible for this type of unsociable behavior
Some may argue that it is because the times are getting harder
Yes this situation may in some cases make it tough for a job to find
But to some even trying seems to be a distant thought in the mind

One of those thing preferred are the i-pod and the blackberry
Because they are not a very great burden to be able to carry
Then too there is that temptation to take flat screen T.V'S and laptops
And there will be a willing buyer even though they may be hot

It is very disturbing to learn of what happened to some people recently
This type of action send chills up the spine and gives the feeling so eerie
Imagine after a good time as a family coming home and push the key in the hole
Was overwhelmed taken inside and then had their privacy trampled

We know that the experts may say that is could be the fallout from the recession
But many of us are products of living in those hard days of olden
Even in those days and time were hard people stood firm and tough it out
But never did that though of crime was entertained as a survival route

Growing up there would be always be those who are better off financially
And would have been able to give their children that most up to day technology
So parents try to ingrain in your children's minds the true state of your position
And try to let them know in no uncertain terms the parameters of your intention
