THE RANCOR
Tears flowing uncontrolled every day for months,
Over unknown virus that plagued the world of humans,
Peace suddenly truncated with bitter emotions unguarded,
Darkness kicking out light in world unprepared,
And here we are honoring layers of hatred in Rancor!
Fathers abusing their trusting and dependent daughters,
Gunmen shooting uncontrolled in marketplaces,
Husbands killing wives out of frustrations,
Teachers raping young girls left in their care,
And here we are celebrating layers of deceit in Rancor!
Natural calamities smiling on our destinies,
Lawlessness causing lifelong tribulations,
Humiliating experiences and never-ending pains,
Kings and Queens parading without adorned crowns,
And here we are eulogizing layers of acrimony in Rancor!
Wailings of death in decorated vicinities,
Parents separated from children unprepared,
Agony and Anguish glaring sternly on blank faces,
Joys cut short in speechless horizons,
And here we are worshiping layers of envy in Rancor!
That virus created colossal loses and mourning,
Think of the plights of the untimely widows and orphans,
Recall the innocent blood wasted in marketplaces,
And figure out how love, peace and unity will work for us,
To fight and destroy those layers of discord in Rancor!
Over unknown virus that plagued the world of humans,
Peace suddenly truncated with bitter emotions unguarded,
Darkness kicking out light in world unprepared,
And here we are honoring layers of hatred in Rancor!
Fathers abusing their trusting and dependent daughters,
Gunmen shooting uncontrolled in marketplaces,
Husbands killing wives out of frustrations,
Teachers raping young girls left in their care,
And here we are celebrating layers of deceit in Rancor!
Natural calamities smiling on our destinies,
Lawlessness causing lifelong tribulations,
Humiliating experiences and never-ending pains,
Kings and Queens parading without adorned crowns,
And here we are eulogizing layers of acrimony in Rancor!
Wailings of death in decorated vicinities,
Parents separated from children unprepared,
Agony and Anguish glaring sternly on blank faces,
Joys cut short in speechless horizons,
And here we are worshiping layers of envy in Rancor!
That virus created colossal loses and mourning,
Think of the plights of the untimely widows and orphans,
Recall the innocent blood wasted in marketplaces,
And figure out how love, peace and unity will work for us,
To fight and destroy those layers of discord in Rancor!
