Tonights Main Headline
22 August, 2004
Author: Ben Franklin
Like a producer
we need to re-master this world,
turn it back into home again,
instead of hell,
our answer to everything is violence
and many lifes we have silenced,
unnecessary pain,
peoples hearts heading in the wrong direction,
people only looking to gain,
target practise on the streets,
8year old timmy got shot in the lung
now he can hardly speak,
people dumped in one spot,
the goverment dont care about 'THAT' part of town,
as far as they are concerned
those people can rot,
one day I hope I turn on the T.V.
and the main headline reads....
''WE ARE ALL LIVING FREELY''.
