Analysis of A Friend

A FRIEND
Since 2015...
Thugs have been in charge.
Rioting, robbing and killing
While they roam free and at large.

They Strike with precision.
Their crimes over in a flash.
Victims lose everything.
Their lives, cars, and cash.

Elected officials not held accountable.
Their rhetoric just hot air.
But, when talks drift to more arrests;
They all scream, "Don't you dare."

Schools dumb down their students.
Been doing it for years.
They've created a new class of people
ill equipped for life and full of fear.

The madness continues.
It seemingly has no end.
It's hard to look to the future.
When you can't find a friend.

A friend is sorely needed.
To bring us from darkness to light.
Someone who'll chase away the demons.
Give us a little peace at night.

A friend who will fix some things.
Do some good and what's right.
Someone we can all support.
With all our voting might.
Just looking...for a friend.
