Poetry: Evil

by Geoffrey Schmitt

Created on: November 30, 2009   Last Updated: December 01, 2009

Nero, Nazi, KKK
Genocide, thalidomide
Oswald, Stalin, 13th day
Manson, Mob, Bonnie and Clyde
Hitler, Ripper, 7th day
Rwanda dying, crucified
Massacre, lynching, look away
One in three no place to hide
Murder, Mayhem, who will say
It's time for us take a ride?

Terror stalks us where we live;
Bombs in buses or a shoe.
Travel risks we can't avoid.
Danger lurks in every hue.
Will you fear to look at me?
Will I fear to stand by you?
While we try to fight the crime
Will the evil start anew?
