Insanity


It’s all a mankind mess. Has our world gone

stark-raving mad? There are good people and

bad ones too, and one wonders who is who?


Captured on video, another innocent black

man is murdered at the hands of the police.

A peaceful protest turns violent, and everyone

becomes involved.


Cars are overturned and set on fire. Windows

are shattered, businesses are vandalized and

looted.


Graffiti scars walls and walkways. Profanities,

tear gas and flash/bang canisters are tossed in

all directions.


Eyes and lungs burn like fire. Hundreds of years

of bias, injustice and atrocities erupt, explode,

consuming the heart and soul of humanity.


Insanity, anarchy infiltrate, permeate and denigrate

society. The cauldron of emotions simmering under the

fires of prejudice, and oppression is bound to boil

over and over again.


For the sins, transgressions and negligence of mankind,

everyone gets burned in the end.
