What is wrong with us?
Death and Destruction plague our planet. Terror spreads its wings because of our habits. What is wrong with us? A young boy in Africa goesa day without anymeals While acorporate bigwig eats caviar and lobster tails What is wrong with us? An endless, religious warrages across the Middle East Along comesapower hungry tyrant, attacking,claiming peace What is wrong with us? We claim to be civilized, a species that has risenabove allothers Why then doI see no other animal destroying its world and fightingeach other What is wrong with us? In the end we cannot escape ourselves, for one day the lord shall beckon Let us hope and pray that he forgives us for our inability toanswer a simple question What is wrong with us

I am 20 years old, fresh out of boot camp. Infantry for life, hooah.
