Where Has All the Good Gone?

Tweet

So much violence.
You turn on the news and all you see is
death, murders, rape, abuse,
hate.
Why?
Where does this anger come from?
We flip through channel after channel of despicable acts:
made by men, bred by men,
the blood of man
dripping as quickly as the tears of the people
remaining as victims.
Their pixel-ated faces sad reminders of what could face us
if we ever walk out the front door.
Every good story as 10 bad ones to take its place.
Shoving the positive down further and further until it's almost
nonexistent.
School shootings, gang hits, drug overdoses,
terrorist attacks...
meaningless killings and meaningless death,
but we can't stop watching.
We're captivated captives
giving killers credence
by continuing to click
until we get our fill,
cultivating a culture
of colorful criminals
who watch the violent news
as children.

Why? 
Where does the anger come from?
