A Poem : by Ellen DeGeneres

Death, disease, famine
homelessness, abuse
I can't even watch
the 5 o'clock news
When did we lose control 
and how do we rebel
Take a look around
we're on a rocket ship to hell
There could be an answer
it may not be too late
but it incolves a transfer
try love instead of hate
All you can do 
is be good to people
and hope that those people
will be good to you too
but good luck
I doubt it
