A Sad Reflection On Humanity

In the early years of the twenty first century intolerance is rife And mistrust and dislike getting stronger by the day Against the refugees of famines and wars And this seems a sad thing for one for to say On the homeless the Stateless and those in dire poverty Extreme Nationalism and Patriotism on them taking toll Their friends sad to say are too few In a World where racism is out of control And so many are becoming more poor In the widening gap of the social divide And no such a thing as a fair go for all In a World where many of a fair go are denied For to be a victim of famine and war Should never be seen as a crime Yet many refugees on their search for a better life Are in detention centers serving time The kind and compassionate are becoming rare At a time when the Human World of them is badly in need And that intolerance is almost Worldwide and rife Is a sad reflection on humanity indeed.
