The Daily Report In English 04012011115pm
The world is a mean place in which to live,
Harboring people, who are quick to judge.
Each take more than they are willing to give,
Daring the victimized to hold a grudge.
Anger appears here more often than joy,
In ways that can be subtle or overt.
Lions devour the lambs that are coy,
Yearning to make their mission seem covert.
Race and Religion! Politics and Sex!
Each separate us in some kind of way.
People are prepared to create the next
Obstacle, that will ruin someone's day.
Reality will one day check us out,
Tortured, beyond a shadow of a doubt.
