ROTTEN FRUITS
Crime is a fruit that falls off a tree,
stealing the lives of those who are free,
it shows total disrespect of a fellow being,
breaking down the goodness he is feeling.
We follow the trail of disrespect,
to find the root of what to inspect,
it leads us all the way to early neglect,
unloved and untrained is on what to reflect.
An undernourished child grows up to be weak,
bearing fruits that nobody seeks,
an inability to achieve makes them mad,
brining forth jealousy that makes them bad.
They turn to crime to fill their desire,
it's too much work building skill they require,
they have no respect for themselves or others,
sneaking and stealing covering it with quarrels.
