I have a Problem

When the world suffers,I have a problem. When somewhere, a natural calamity strucks,I have a problem. When there is global warming,I have a problem. When my country isn’t progressing,I have a problem. When my family, friends suffer,I have a problem. BUT……….. When there is a war,I have more problems. When somewhere, a man-made calamity strucks,I have more problems. When there is pollution,I have more problems. When there is corruption,I have more problems. When my country suffers,I have more problems. “ I HAVE SO MANY PROBLEMS ” —THIS IS MY ONLY PROBLEM…..

Very good piece. I like the

Very good piece. I like the repetition. This repetition brings the point of your piece out and serves to make it pop out even more. You have a point that there are many problems in the world, whether they are caused by nature or man. I feel that one person's problem(s) is another person's problem(s). This is conveyed in this piece very well. On the other hand one person can make a difference and that is something else that i get from this piece.
