A man walks up to a community
in dire need of help
support he seeks
never asked a soul for help
now just wants someone to care
perhaps just some attention
in return the man is welcomed
as if he is part of the family so to say
gets attention and support from all
and continuous support as life goes on
some true friends he has the potential to make
and keep some life-long friends even
such a comfortable and relaxed lifestyle to live
how could you go wrong?

Several years later...

Same man walks up to the scene
for argument sake I will even say with the same community
will be turned away in no time
will not even have the chance to state an opinion
if allowed to speak will be criticized
will become the oddball
the outcast of the community
if accepted, it would only to to somehow benefit the people
even being in dire need
in return for moral support or company
will ask for personal deeds in return
when the time of need rolls by
the man is cast away and forgotten
until maybe, perhaps, another time of need...

Helping others only to leech off the little they have
slowly withering away at the life of others
while such actions should be punished there is nothing to be done
as we never realize what we truly have until we have lost it
and even then it may not hit us
we, a society, in the united states of america
this is what we are
this is what we have become
changes can be made in people
however the majority seems to change for the worst

Prayer is needed for our much in need country
some fear a possible end to all human life
my fear is that we will do ourselves in
will slowly push each other away until the point of our extinction
