     I've been here once before and seen
           Poor people grow poor
Rich people think this world as one big score
         So i wish to die once more
                  Never
To live again. In the heart of greedy mortal men.


I'm a dying romantic and when i can no longer write i can no longer live -Jeremiah Johnson-

Jeremiah, this is simply wonderful. You sum up the downside of modern society in so few words.
But I have to add (I feel the same way as you, so I'm always looking for positive things) that there are still people who care. Think of those few but devoted people who donate their lives to good causes, be it helping the poor, the environment, animals or whatever.
