Where does it come from?

... Those feelings of hate ...

To whom do they belong?

... Why don't they escape?



Before revulsion made them turn against brother

Where is the caring and understanding mother ...?

Why was she not around when they needed her ...?

Why couldn't they turn to her and avoid the sinister?



Why do kids revolt ... ?

And turn hate against others?

Which teacher did bolt?

Making them lose their cover?



Why do kids find it necessary to take out their frustration?

On a harmless boy who saw life on a different gyration?

Why can't we all learn to abide all of our fellow man ...

Regardless of race, creed, gender, preference or stand?
