What was the Universal Truth?
Those empty eyes ganging up
Having witnessed but unamused
Human failings visuals stuck
Face of innocent blank looks
Matured at early age unwittingly
Shocked at antics of the crooks
Sufferings caused the community
What was the Universal Truth?
Brute strengths reigned supreme
Unfair sentiments let loose
Unchecked brought to extremes
Sadly survival of the fittest
Marked the order of the day
Connivance and self interests
Given space to other’s dismay
For Herotomost's hosting at Real Toads - the universal truth
Children robbed of their childhood...
ReplyDeleteBrute strengths - gangs?
Life isn't always easy, even less so for many indeed
ReplyDeleteLiving each day like that is a sad reality for a lot of people
ReplyDeleteI'm glad to see that I'm not the only one that brought forward hard-to-swallow truths...this is expressed poignantly.
ReplyDeletelife is hard someitmes...you collected images and pieces of that harsh reality with fervor.

Brutal life for some--not easy to watch
ReplyDeleteThe brutality of survival of the fittest require us to use compassion.
ReplyDeleteI totally agree.

ReplyDeleteWell written Hank.
*sigh* It's sad, because this can strike on so many levels. But, in summation...Life. Good piece though.
ReplyDeleteSurvival of the fittest - sadly true. A well stretched piece, Hank.
ReplyDeleteHank, this is the world we see on the news....well captured, my friend.

brute strength is not universal truth...though we tend to act like it is...perhaps that is the worlds way...but not the eternal one...
ReplyDeleteThe Social contract giving up natural rights for fairness and justice because of a heightened sense of emotional consciousness.... Our so they sayno still think that we will never really get it. Great piece of writing, home run!!
ReplyDeleteSurvival of the fittest has always made me think of extreme fighting... without rules or love for our fellow man.
