Fires rage
The world ablaze
with no contentment
in the sparks
that set the skin to scorch
Anger abounds crime surrounds
the bleeding of the hearts
Stuck behind bars
never to see the stars
lost out of this world
never to live
Fires descend
as if the blackness
will ever disolve
lost behind bars
keys thrown afar
this is what happens when
crime comes this way.

thanks Mark, I don't know where it came from but was there somewhere, but I guess I was thinking about how quickly people get caught up in crime then there's no turning back.
Jinxed and reject now that's quite a combination, I'm glad you enjoyed the poem I guess my message being that crime doesn't pay.
