    dotsAnd All Our Compassion Is Dead...dots
    -------------------------------------------


    And all our shame
    Hangs in the gallows;
    The theif,
    The rapist,
    The murderer.

    And all our hate
    Hangs from the trees;
    The poor white man,
    The poor black man,
    The poor man in general.

    And all our fear
    Burns in the fire
    The witch,
    The black cat,
    The sorcerer.

    And from the gallows
    To the trees
    To the rising pyres
    There's always someone else to blame
    Will the finger ever point back at you?

      Yes it does seem our world is full of a lot of passion and not a whole lot of compassion. Good intentions do count for something and I do think if we're patient and observant we will see what we need to see in what the world dishes out to us, and in what we give it back. Potent descriptions-you captured an aspect of mankind that is hard to sum up in a pretty concise little package. Perhaps your poem could continue? You could keep it going for some time in that theme, leaving it in the same format.
