Violence

Violence

A Poem by Sam Freeland
"

less is better

"
Behavior just or unjust
is a description of our act
For defense and or attack
when we need it its a fact
 
Our violence for defense
may repel or avert an attack
But there is usually no help
 because no one has your back
 
If the attack is imagined
 violence will be unjust
To avert the problem
communication is a must
 
Troubles get their start
when one's acts are wrong
The weak will be hurt
by the bullies who are strong
 
To prevent this from occurring
requires everyone's attention
For civilization to work
 acts must have good intention
 
When parents do their part
their young will soon learn
They will model what they see
and develop some concern
 
Allowing only media events
to be the example of their choice
Will give civilized society
no reason to rejoice
 
Ignoring abusive entertainment
as many have chosen to do
Will be a problem for our future
and you know this is true
