Bullies

As we look at our society,
We'll see one that creates most anxiety.
It's one that we should all despise.
It is one which no-one should disguise.

It is a bully - as they bring distress,
Turning good people's minds into a mess.
To destroy confidence is their aim.
Then after that they'll just do the same.

For victims they will always seek,
Searching for those who seem weak.
But for what they do there is no need,
With no reasons for their wicked deed.

But bullies are in fact the most afraid,
So fight back and see their courage fade.
Then they will be thrown right down to Earth,
And then we'll see just what they're worth.

Thanks Stuart.

Manish rightly refers to our youth.
They learn their behaviour from what they see in the world around them.
They will be watching our politicians upon whom the security of their futures relies.
Unfortunately, in the UK, we have psychopathic and sociopathic bullies in the highest echelons of our government currently in power, whose client so-called "journalists" make vast amounts of money from propagating fear, lies and ignorance at their behest.

This poem is powerfully written. This deserves to be read by a greater youth audience. Being a post graduate student myself, I have seen this quite a few times in my college life. I think this will fill-in a lot of confidence to the one getting bullied or facing any of it.
Thank you.

Stuart,
A very topical poem which depicts much of what adversely effects all our lives.
Thank you for this,
Keith
