There used to be a clear-cut line
Between what’s right and wrong.
If someone crossed it, he or she’d
Be caught before too long.
Of course, some bullies, even then,
Caused others to get hurt,
Behavior which put everybody
Else on high alert.
Yet even if they weren’t caught
Or punished, we all knew
Their actions weren’t cool or things
That we would ever do.
But lately now I see or hear of
Bullies everywhere,
Defying former norms in ways
Before, we wouldn’t dare.
So crime is up, decorum down
And harm is being done.
I read the news and feel so sad
Before the day’s begun.
