Lieu commun

We see, read, hear the same old tired tale
every single bloody moment
people killing people - people killing animals
people killing themselves in all kinds of ways.

Politicians address their syncophants
any clergy preach to their devotees
people killing people - people killing animals
people killing themselves in sophisticated ways.

Poets rant and rave about this state
skeptics applaud the poets - but
people killing people - people killing animals
people killing our earth in unforgivable ways.
