"Right now"

Right now, Bleeding out, broken down Dieing like a pig, A child gurgles the anthem of the gunshot wound In blaze of passion, In the heart of love, A rapist is defiling a screaming victim Semen mix with tears, As the blood flows back in the siring A white orgasmic agony As the heroin goes in Amazing stars of heaven’s light Are in the eyes of many a split mind In the cold damp of their card bored paradise The shrink wrap of there hotel rooms long forgotten Or so the evil faces in the sewer say On a well made bead of leaves Malaria takes it’s toll, While we take OUR vaccines In OUR country OUR money OUR dreams Pop goes the rest of the world In a cold and disturbed dream, A child wakes from her bed Dreaming of the distant screams Of the needless human dead Right now A bomb is made Right now, a child is saved Right now A bomb is made Right now, a child is saved Right now A bomb is made Right now Two-hundred thousand down the drain Right now A child fades away Not enough money to buy food Right now, A Criminal makes millions on cocaine Guns, funds, prostitution All those lovely escapades Right now, Someone is in prison While at the store, They killed someone In a bar, Justice severed Life in prison Right now Needs to change But can time, Ever change? ……………………………. Can humans, Ever become humane?
