Everythings affected, affected in everyway. <br />A Nation filled with, 'Got to Have Folks', <br />Now, WE all have too pay! <br /> <br />People starving, unemployment rising, gas prices out of sight! <br />Everyone seems to have their needs, from little girls who walk the night. <br /> <br />It comes from ones shameful pride, lusts and greed. <br />We all have in our power, what the world really needs. <br /> <br />To embrace one another, give a hand to the poor, <br />Is this too much to ask? <br />Or are their cries not heard anymore? <br /> <br />Everythings affected, affected in everyway, <br />So go about your life my friend, <br />Walking blinded through your day. <br /> <br />For if we don't take a stand to help, <br />You may become one of them yourself. <br />Someone who's life needs and fears, <br />Have been placed upon a shelf, <br />And no one seems to care.<br /><br />Linda Winchell<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/everythings-affected/
