Noisy



Noisy
-Tuesday, December 4, 2012. 10:19 p.m.-

Life can become so hectic, loud and annoying.

Tank is on empty, bills piling up—along with the amount its showing.

The demands of others, the fast pace of the world…

Can all ignore one starving little girl.

Or the war veteran—whom fought the most evil of evil,

Only to live on streets, neighbor to roaches, ants and beetles.

The mother that cries every night because she can’t feed her babies.

Ignoring the wise, worthy old man who’s ill and dying just because his insurance is “not covered”, written off as shady.

Ignoring the teachers that spiritually fight everyday just to calm and reach one child.

The grandmother who has paid her dues but is raising their child’s child as she runs wild.

The men who are head of their families but can no longer provide for their families.

Ignoring how there are less and less high school graduates yet more younger causalities.

Oh yes!

The world is hectic, loud and annoying.

The question is how much do we imagine and just how much are we ignoring?
