What Were We Thinking

What were we
Thinking

Tell me
What did we think
That we would see
When we finally
Took an honest look

At reality
A society
Without
Humanity
Fighting
Each other
In search

Of nothing
But power
Killing
In the name
Of so much
Misplaced
Hate and anger
None of it
Makes
Any sense
What so ever
Children
Living and
Starving
On the street
Dying
As nothing more
Than one more
Homeless
Statistic
We don't ever
Seem to care
Enough about
To reach out
And help
More and more

Animals
Becoming
Non existent
On a planet

We are killing
By greatly
Mistreating

And neglecting
It daily
Tell me
Society
What is our
Answer going to be
When all is said and done
And this game of life

We will have all lost
What will the answer be then
When asked
What were we thinking
