This is a cruel world.

This is a cruel world.

A Poem by Onlyme
"

Dog eat Dog ...used to describe a situation in which people will do anything to be successful, even if what they do harms other people

"
This is a cruel world.
"A dog eats dog society."
The homeless begging in the streets
cardboard cities everywhere.
Even in the suburbs
where people actually
live and just manage to
survive too as the wages are
on zero contracts and limited
jobs going around to do.

Prescription charges are
going so high.
You will need a bank loan
to pay for your
medication scripts alone.

Kids are stabbing each other
over "dissing them".
 
In the old days a
dispute with someone.
Was sorted out with just a fist fight.
It's now who dies first is the winner.
That is sick and so very tragic.

Old people and vulnerable people
are attacked in their homes and
robbed and sometimes raped too.
So you don't even feel safe inside
your own home no more.

This world is so fucked up.
Where has compassion, love,
caring and decency went
in this world.

I pity the next generation growing up.
