Sad but true

Life is sad but true
So many love to argue
They care not to repay a debt
They'd rather escape the net
Sinking  lower than the rest
Resorting to bad behaviour!

"Men are more ready
To repay an injury
Than a benefit because
Gratitude is a burden
Revenge is a pleasure!"
Tacitus C. 55 - 120 A.D.

Look around and you will see
That people would rather
Cause another person injury
Without any thought at all
No remorse; no gravity
All is "Just do it!" mentality
The sayings that abound
Are really nasty: underhand
No forgiveness: just demand
"Don' just get even: get revenge!"
What ever happened to "doing right"
What ever happened to honesty?
Dear Lord : so many people
Everywhere I go: everywhere I look
Sadness: as they show no respect
Children get to answer back
Of parental supervision there is a lack
Lord help us to pray more
Lord help us get back to civility!
