Donations are essential to keep Write Out Loud going    

THE AGE OF WORRY

Hurry, hurry, hurry,

Come get your share of worry;

Politically inspired...media fired,

To smother you like slurry!

Your every day must burn

With this or that concern,

To go to bed, near off your head

And there to toss and turn.

We're targeted by hysteria

That makes us feel inferior -

Hardened by a predictable return

To the need to feel superior.

But we're in the age of guilt

On which our lives are built,

So share we must the death and dust

And all the blood that's spilt!

Hugh/Keith - most appreciative of your comments. It may
be me but there are times when I feel there is some
orchestrated campaign to keep us in a constant state of
agitation and feel somehow responsible for everything
that is going on in the world today...perhaps a part of
the "globalisation" that is such a popular feature of news
items these days.
Cheers
