life
is just another word
for hell on earth
maybe you don't
think that is true
maybe you think life
is pure and innocent. always.
but if you think
this you have led
a very sheltered life
most know life is
not all flowers and candy
wrapped in clear, pretty celiphane.
life is a dark thing
you have yet to experience
you haven't walked down
one wrong road in your life
haven't seen what a crack
addicted mother does to her child.
if you wish life
to stay this way
don't try to save
the homeless or the
deranged drug
addicts from themselves.
