A DYING WORLD

DISSATISFACTION

The state of the nations is in a terrible mess,
young and old are all suffering distress,
the elders can't survive on their meagre pension,
the young's neglect we can't even mention.

The unemployed all rob, steal and destroy,
workers strike and riot against those that employ,
the entire world lives in dissatisfaction,
while pain and suffering is the main attraction.

All love and respect has gone down the drain,
as people trample each other for gain,
prices are continually on the rise,
as more and more people fall to demise.

Land and fields all perish with drought,
as the nations rant and rage and shout,
corruption and dishonesty have taken power,
as it looks at the masses from its ivory tower.
