SOCIETY WAS TO BLAME....

SOCIETY WAS TO BLAME....

Addicted in the womb 
'Mothered' by a whore
Never knew his father
His mother wasn't sure

Started life a victim
The 'system' let him down
People turned a blind eye
Watched him slowly drown

Desperate with loneliness
Craving any affection
Vulnerable to predators
He welcomed their attention 

Aroused by violence
Was all he'd ever known 
Started to enjoy the pain
Perverse seeds, now sown

On a path of destruction
Fueled by anger and hate
Inflicting pain and suffering
Aroused his frenzied state

Didn't feel any remorse 
Had no sense of shame
Born from a warped reality
Society was to blame.....

That image pierces into your soul Jason, quite haunting.  A sad tale, told well.  Liked the picture you created.  This was my favourite stanza

Started life a victim
The 'system' let him down
People turned a blind eye
Watched him slowly drown

Simple message that has great effect.  The imagery is strong.  Love your stuff, always enjoy reading:)x
