World View
Creation
Made for all in every single nation
Around the globe
Around every single abode
In our hands
All these diverse lands
At our disposal
Even coal
We recollect
Inspect
Harvest much
Of whatever we touch
All in all
From small
To tall
Endless resources so we first see
Tireless accumulation till they no longer be
The quest,
Shows ,no rest.
In circumspect,
Where is the respect?
The damage done
The cause and effect, toward everyone
Condoning.
More loaning.
Draining,
While attaining
Accumulation,
With eventual ration.
Continuous,
Abuse,
From misuse,
And overuse.
To afford that suit,
Gaining more loot,
Gathering even other's fruit.
This constitutes greed.
Ultimately is where it all leads.
In time,
Wanting all till all is mine
We are free to take whatever,
We even alter, the weather.
Aren't we clever.
In all these ongoing systematic endeavors,
At the end of the day,
What do we have to say,
Well I've increased my pay,
While we eat the very last manta-ray.
Wealth,
Acquired by stealth,
Adding to our private chambers and shelves,
Treating others like little work elves.
In the shadows,
Behind a myriad of hedgerows
No longer does the cock crow
That's the ultimate denial - you know .
So much gone a-rye
Each has their own spy...
While the needy cry!
Help you - but why?
Loss of humane caring attitudes,
Across all latitudes,
No longitudinal gratitude,
Just crass & abruptly rude.
Few realize the actual endangerment
On tail spins we are all sent.
Wondering what is actually happening,
No, we never even stopped to share - our ration9ioning...
Tension builds
No, nothing left on our window - sills
And almost gone is all the tons of Krill.
When you take and take,
Never to replace!
In what state ?
Do you reside as an - ingrate ?
The cosmic take-over, lets cover
That former pristine lake - over.
Enmeshed in the legalese,
If you please,
The removal of all trees.
So when we sneeze,
Another tissue, if you please.
Don't want to spread yet another disease
The job of a sleaze,
Cutting others down by ebbing - the degrees.
Where no-one sees.
They are actually polluting an-other's seas...
Incremental deterioration,
Caused by greedy expectations.
Increase demand for consumer relations.
As morals go down in societal degradation,
Concerned only with one's own - reputation.
As the globe revolves,
Few actually pursue - to solve.
The dilemmas from the past,
For generations, it will last & last
Inept minds,
Think its all fine. .
Collapse occurs,
While still there are echos of pain and - murmurs...
The tremors,
Ensue...
As demise continues....
What have we done ?
Or even, what have 'they' won ?
Realizing, no real stewardship at all, has really been done
Those who caused the havoc are on the run
Or just holding on to their large cash sum.
Cause and effect
Scars show many a regret.
Some strategize,
While others apologize,
Why are there so many sty-s,
In our very own eyes ?
When we neglect our own humanity
The insanity
Utter calamity
Yet another, then, yet another catastrophe...
The world's leaders rule
Appointing many a drone - a fool
Into positions
With commands that have conditions
The backroom deals
Our very livelihood - it steals
While all concealed
In
The backroom deals
You can't make this stuff up
All over it is corrupt
Citizens allowing
While in the shadows cowering
Standards are low
Don't care if don't know .
What is going on ?
Pollution, where all the Salmon spawn ?
Why is it all so severe
Our stewardship is awful - it is clear...
Hedgerow, after hedgerow in our monoculture
The ultimate control - agriculture
All that is attained
Represents losses to be regained
Once lost
To just a minor - frost
Managed at what new cost
By the select few, as the boss
God's special gifts,
Are
Our collective earth stewardships'.
