What is it about society <br />That resents authority? <br />There needs to be structure <br />Or chaos would rule; <br />Certain factions defy the law - <br />They live without rules, <br />They do as they please, <br />Wreak havoc in the world; <br />Conscience does not guide them, <br />Right or wrong the same - <br />Without regret, they stand alone <br />And answer to no man; <br />Destruction is their motive - <br />Death, mutilation, pain <br />Their playing cards, <br />The joker is wild; <br />Spawn of the devil? <br />What turns one child to darkness <br />And another to the light? <br />Products of environment - <br />Reflections of love or neglect? <br />And could you ever love enough <br />To change the tide <br />From bad to good, <br />To save a soul................. <br />Is it ever too late? <br /> <br /> <br />3/31/2009<br /><br />Linda Ori<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/is-it-ever-too-late/
