Poetic-Verses
'' Good Passes Us By ''
We revel in strife,
Every day in the news,
When looking at life,
They express their views.
Bad outweighs the good,
It makes better reading,
To be decent or crude,
Which are you heeding.
We do love a scandal,
Good tidings are bad,
Just take the vandal,
Without him we'd go mad.
Extra marital affairs,
Are on the front page,
As the reader stares,
It puts them in a rage.
People being killed,
Or unlawfully bled,
It's not fear that's instilled,
It's what must be read.
Being robbed by the rich,
Makes the latest editions,
Then those we should ditch,
Yes, the politicians.
Wars make a good story,
There's no denying,
We revel in gory,
As millions lie dying.
We gossip and slander,
Without checking the facts,
By dismissing candour,
The negative reacts.
Without even a mention,
No, it's not a lie,
By preferring pretension,
