Corruption Kills Poem by Sandra Feldman

Corruption Kills

Rating: 5.0


The Corruption that was Rome,
The melt down of civilization,
We don't need to walk the past,
To be under its stifling Dome.

All you have to do is look around you,
Shame to those who knowingly participate,
And condone, and accept the crumbling process,
The strangling of our morals and our nation!
In the end, we will all pay a heavy price,
For having ignored the death of decency,
And for having allowed the enthronement of Vice!

the death of decency... Damn, I wish I had written that line! Powerful expression with equivalent delivery, and sadly, all so true, Sandra...Your pen pours with patriotic pride and concern...and much poetic value ~FjR~

Well said, Sandra. This is a menace almost entire world has to face today. It looks all are denouncing corruption. Yet, every day it is getting worse. Why is this? Who is responsible? Let Poets at least make a noise for the rest of the world to hear. Well written!
