What A Waste--Tainted Youth
By Malcholm Dark
Elected
heros, saving face
Political strings and grace
Masters of
the puppet race...
what a waste, what a waste.
Run amok
in blood-filled streams
Designer-drugs by any means
Suicides
in razored dreams...
what a waste it seems.
Dear Sheila
turns into Tom
Lucid youth abused and gone
The puppet race
lives on and on...
what a waste, an empty dawn.
Cocaine
and black ties
Lord of the flies
Witch-hunts and lies...
what a waste it never dies.
Now praise the prodigal son
Social failings--A time of the gun
The slaughtered dead, here they
come...
what a waste, done and done.
Twisted youth
abound, unbound
Missing dead confound, resound
Master's safe
with them around
Let loose the wolves upon the hound...
what
a waste, our burial ground.
Tainted youth within society
Master's castration anxiety
Total loss of our propriety...
what
a waste,
what a waste,
what a waste.

Your words are not wasted here. I like the way you structured this. It could be lyrics to a song.
