    The Order of the Day
    Brutality is the order of the day
    Weather we chant, march or pray

    Selfishness is the order of the day
    Rookies hog the ball messing up the play

    Careless disregard is the order of the day
    Quantity is kept and quality thrown away

    Fear is the order of the day
    Bigotry bred ignorance is a mainstay

    When you take down the orders of the day
    Quickly you notice the world’s still insane

    Decide to continue existing on this plane
    By hook or by book find a way to maintain

    hm...Brutality, selfishness, careless disregard and fear are the order of the day...I don't know how others will read it but I read it with the nature of our everyday life woe and capture the picture of it. Great work

    If I feel physically as if the top of my head were taken off, I know that is poetry.
