"Return With Me, If You Will, Too..."A Poem by Michael StevensPolitics today!
“Return with Me, If You Will, To...”
Return with me, if you will, to the
good old days
when man was compassionate towards
his fellow man,
when caring was on the upswing; not
like now,
when it’s dog eat dog, and you’re on
your own is the creed
Long ago, knowledge wasn’t mocked as
something
only snobby liberals were guided by
Whatever happened to our sense that
education,
both of ourselves, and our young
people,
was the key for a bright future?
Somewhere or somehow along the way
we the people averted our eyes;
looked to something new
Now days it’s greed and selfishness
that we worship
Yes, towards the close of the 20th
century,
politics changed; and a new creed
was put in place
See how much more satisfied we are?
