Our Resident Poet at Work

screwed up *

by H. R. Berg [pen name in case deniability becomes an issue]

everybody's screwed up
it's just a matter of degree

someone might seem normal
until you know the whole sad story

all are victims
all are victimizers

the wise are often foolish
and the powerful often destructive

the best are deeply flawed
and the worst defy description

everybody's screwed up
it's just a matter of degree
