A Collision With Self - Destruction Poem by The Original Tom Maxwell

As I look ahead, will the future be better than the past,
how many more days of survival, until we see the last.
A collision course with self - destruction, is on the way,
the greed of most people, will lead us to that day.
Our military and money, always going to countries far away,
when our country is heading into the same problems, some day.
Our middle class is fading slowly in time, more falling than moving up,
is our government being run, by the best people every day,
if you believe, the one's with large sums of currency, should stay.
An average citizen, could be the best official we ever had,
but they don't have the funds, or contacts, which is so sad.
Most of the people are never heard, when they have something to say,
and will wait for the collision with self - destruction day.
