Right now

What's happening right now

Right now

A child is crying

A lady is dying

And a man is lying

Right now 

A mother is weeping 

A boy is forever sleeping 

And a youth is bleeding

Right now

A child cannot eat

A gambler has died trying to cheat

And a rapist is stalking his fresh meat

Right now 

An officer has been shot

The wrong person has been caught

And a child's corpse has begun to rot

Right now

The Government are plotting 

A murderer is planning

And  there you are thinking

Where is this poem leading?
