Look South

Where to lay the blame.

Go south.

There in the waters lies the dangers.

People stay hidden

and crime rises with deranged rangers.

Militia men who used to protect

now seek to hurt.

Those who are vulnerable

are headed to the cemetery sooner.

Clear sparkling waters

as you go further south.

Into lands so green

and fires that ravage

because of a petulant decision.

The tip of the pole so cold

few can last there.

But where else do we go

unless we head around the world.

To continue south means

eventually we end up back at ourselves.
