#WritcoPoemPrompt76
Why do people do bad things? Answer this question by writing a poem.

I was raised well
I grew up knowing right from wrong
for others it's tough
some don't know their parents
some don't have any
and some leave when their young
unlike me they might not know
right from wrong
they might never had had parents to teach them

if we are a product of our environment
then all those that grew up without love
and attention
all those that were never treated right by those around them
are just a product of everyones actions done toward them
they are bad people because of the bad that has been done to them
they do bad things because when they were younger they never healed from the trauma
of when they were young
