New Reforms For The Imperfect Society : Modern Poetry

written by Poet : Paul McCann


No where to hide as another year is just ready to leave.

No fireworks to see ,

no parties to go to on on new years eve  .

No surprises there shall be no reprisals in what I see .

No answers ,
No promises ,
No changes
it's just how it must be .

No justice for innocent victims who's virtues pay the dirt.

No protection in the home .
No compensation for the hurt .

No credit where it's due .
No debt it's all global free trade today .

No drink for drinkers who say society must pay their way .

No sobriety for the righteous who say they can't be wrong .

No drugs on the street .
Addicts with habits will have to be strong .

No point trying to be straight about things for you won't get on .

No caring for the weak who can't change their own situation.

No rewards for those who work hard .
No sport .
No recreation .

No food for the hungry .No charity for the homeless poor .

No paid jobs .
No dole !
No more feeling financially secure .

No assets .
No investments .
No luck except of course for bad !

No place for the sick or aged .
No comfort for those who are sad .

No funding for the departments of health and education .

No hope for the family of a future generation !

No you don't have a life , be quiet .

No you don't have a say .

No don't make any promises you can't keep .

Its new years day  .
