'All For The Sake Of Entertainment' Poem by Linda Winchell

Why is it that we seem to call
painfully falling to your knees, entertainment?
Roman's allowing lions to devour the meek
for the sake of entertainment.
Pulling in watching eyes to an arena
lions starved so that their beastly
instinct would jump at the first sight of food
all for the sake of entertainment.
Ripping and tearing God's creation,
into what is now indistinguishable.
How has mankind changed?
What improvements have we made,
what has our past taught us?
We, now the lions of our own creation,
devour our un-born,
ripping them from hopeless, helpless young mother's wombs,
Then selling their body parts, for the sake of sience.
Game shows allowing the truth of mans' sins to be exsposed to the world, all for the sake of entertainment.
Never seeing the damage it will cause,
not caring if it does, all for the sake of entertainment.
Devouring all that is left of the human spirit of man.
All for the sake of Entertainment.
Where the world is helplessly wandering,
searching for a better feeling of self,
Love from another, Love for themselves.
In alley ways and bars, shooting poison both into their veins and past their lips, all for the sake of entertainment.
Women allowed to expose what God created,
to be viewed as beauty and not that of lust,
all for the sake of entertainment.
Our future generation dieing by the thousands
never allowed to become what God had created them to be.
Entertain that thought, all for the sake of entertainment.
