A species so self aware..
this species you better beware
their behavior
tends to scare..
cruel carelessness is what they share
with other forms of being and beauty..
is this our duty?
to fuck the whole world up
without giving a shit?
I'd have to admit I don't like it a bit
the way we
don't throw a fit over
this disaster..
this decay..
the fields of green Glory fading away..
not trying to be pessimistic but
luckily we aren't here to stay.
That's not to say
I hate any of us or
wish we all would Perish,
I just don't agree with the way we've done things on this planet damnit..
I love the beautiful things we've created and the wonder and mystery we've brought into existence..
Unfortunately
Our beauty comes with
a fair share
of horror..
coupled with destruction and global gore.. might be right outside your front door
sometimes seeming like there's always more..
too heartbreaking to ignore..
as a civilization
our chore is to
clean up the collectively corrupted international crime scene that we've so carelessly abandoned..
it's obscene..
With no one to stop us
but our selves
and no one to save us
but ourselves..
