A  Tiny Link

A tiny link

This minute thread

Passing on through

The family tree...

The DNA of insanity

A corrupted gene

So much heartache

This little gene brings...

Love is shattered

And dreams recede

Hatred and violence

Now proceed....

Used and abused

As a battering ram

Reviled and spat at

Cursed and goaded

Every violent day

When this gene

Comes out to play....

Pleads help

Fall on deaf ears

As this foul little gene

Brings rivers of tears....

Not a soul is listening

To the sorrowful plea

“Is they’re anyone out there”

“Who will show me mercy?”
