A man jumped off the platform,
just to retrieve his shoe.
Nobody bothers as it's the norm,
unless it's someone they knew.
The train approaches the station,
but everyone just stared.
When he experienced extermination,
I wonder if anyone cared.
Blood was splattering everywhere,
and time reached a standstill.
Disbelief was floating in the air,
all witnesses felt the chill.
None stopped the train,
none helped him out.
Now the man is slain,
they are guilty with no doubt.
The callousness of mankind,
is a disturbing and ugly trait.
All of us are one kind,
yet we do what others will berate.
Are strangers that hostile,
that one detests to help?
Friends they will be if you smile;
Be nice to assist them when they yelp.
