A Crying Shame Poem by Qiniso Mogale

Crime has skyrocketed
Governments ruled by greed
Women and children abused
The populace led by the corrupt
Respect and honor inexistent
It's a crying shame.

Widows and orphans in abject poverty
Leaders long lost their integrity
Families in disarray
Prisons highly populated
Communities confused
Nature is also confused
The things done by people are contrary to nature
It's a crying shame.

Confusion even in churches
Darkness reigns where there should be light
Day light robberies in churches
Church leaders concerned only with offerings
Sexual immorality rife in churches
Lies and deceit in churches
It's a crying shame
It's a crying shame.
