My Brother's KeeperA Poem by Michael Stevens Today's lack of compassion! My Brother’s Keeper
The cruelty and deprivation we heap
on others is shocking!
The lack of caring for others by
certain politicians is shocking!
What’s not shocking is why some
people feel this way
Because in their world, being
selfish is the normal way
In their world, it’s finders,
keepers!,
It's such a cold hard world, say, "burr!"
It’s, “I got mine, and you can piss
off!”
Something about that attitude is way
off!
Whatever happened to, the “I am my
brother’s keeper” saying?
