Our world is full of evil
Our world is full of hate
Hate released by the devil
from hells binding gate

Icy stares strike us
Words knock us down
In a world of unjust
Hypocrites get the crown

People speak their faith
And to the lions they get thrown
Danger lurks and waits;
A deadly fire zone

Poets speak their hearts
And get pushed upon the ground
They practice outlawed arts
And get beat wherever they bound

Friend hate
Lovers cheat
Kids love their parents
Only to get beat

Christians get crucified
By followers of the Lord
Cut down by their comrades;
A demonic hord

God weaps in heaven
For His children lost
So He sent his son,
At the ultimate cost

Our sins He took
And bore of His own
His father turned

And left Him alone.

Our world if full of evil
Our world is full of hate
Hate released by the devil
From hells binding gate.

Well, here's the first response of 788
As a poem of quality...afraid it doesn't rate.
