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
