WHO IS TO BLAME
we read in the papers
and hear on the air
of killing and stealing
and crime everywhere
we sigh and say
as we notice this trend
this younger generation
where will it end?
but can they be sure
it's our fault alone?
--are they less guilty who place in our way-
to many things that lead us astray
to much money
to much idle time
to many movies
of passions and crime
to many books
not fit to be read,
to much evil
in the things we hear said
to many children
encourged to roam
to many parents
who want to stay home
