SUICIDE is on, the rise. 

Does anybody really, wonder why?

Anybody really care, at all?

Cry for help, the call. 

Cause is depression, ninety percent. 

Anxiety taken to, the extreme. 

Today everything moving, so fast. 

That just can’t, keep up. 

In end lose, the fight. 

Old enough to, “ know better”. 

Young enough that, lost hope. 

Today and tomorrow, no match. 

Give up in, the end. 

Lost, too many, good people. 

Could have contributed, much more. 

Ages from 45, to 64. 

Don’t like where, everything’s headed. 

By our leaders, just ignored. 

They have their, own agenda. 

That problem worry, about later. 

Many fall victim, to system. 

Mental illness on, the rise. 

Talked about, but, not addressed. 

Only formed panel, to study. 

Healthcare system can’t, keep up. 

Too many guns, easily obtained. 

Out of balance, our government. 

No time for, due process. 

The “accuser” now, on trial. 

No time given, prove “innocence”. 

Shouldn’t it go, both ways?

Why the rush, answer that. 

To all did, a disservice. 

All in name, “of justice”. 

Where there’s doubt, hold off. 

Life is all, about timing. 

That came up, now important. 

Bias and partisanship, did win. 

Reached point needed, an arbitrator. 

Unionize the process, file grievance.

Ever heard of, working together?

Meeting in middle, called compromise?

I guess not, how sad. 

These words tearing, nation apart...

“My way or, the highway”. 

Kicking democracy out, are you?

It sure looks, like it. 

Show us we, are wrong. 

“Get off your, high horse”. 

Or we’ll do, something about. 

Remember about timing, election coming. 

At the booth, meet you!
