A Prisoner of Society
Society of today
has made me a prisoner of my own home
I remember the time
when I could go to the park
and enjoy a lovely walk
but not any more
I no longer go there
because of the abuse
that comes from the kids
who hang around there
then a few weeks later
I was mugged
taking a walk to the shops
two men appeared from no where and attacked me
they beat me up and stole my money
now,
I’m too frightened to go any where
what is happening to our society
