Bullshit! - a poem

it is bullshit!

when tsunami waves strike strike shores
or innocent people end up as collateral damage
or when children are found to have tumors in their brains
some of these things are out of our control

and that is bullshit!

that these creeping things come in and attack and claw about with winter claws
and strip our bones, ripping skin from skin, and we can't get out of the way
because it is directly in our pathways, seeking to devour us, all of this
sense of uselessness.

it is bullshit!

that cancer exists, that it should exist, that we truly haven't found
a way to to combat it, as we pour all of our resources into combat
scenarios, and murdering people, so much more to be done if we could
just simply give our resources for things that could save our sons
and our daughters.

that is bullshit!
