Blissful Oblivion

Now it seems the earth is done giving Just because your living in blissful oblivion Doesn’t mean your not accountable For our earth should hold us responsible For looting and plundering and being irresponsible! The world we know will soon be gone The sun will burn it’self out, of this I am in no doubt There will be no dawn, for that matter no bird song The ground will freeze, their will be no breeze Plants will wilt, as we see our earth bend and tilt People will die, you will not hear babies cry And as the earth spins souls will give in Lakes and rivers will dry, wasting water a sin There will be a great drought, if we don’t turn our ways about And this will all happen, I can guarantee it now In blissful oblivion, as we manage somehow The world will end, this is how, Is this how? Change your ways, please you can start right now! 4.8.22

Few people today consider consequences/alternatives as they are quite happy to leave choices to "experts" like Alex Jones! Perhaps your poem will change some minds! Aloha!

We collectively have failed as humans to protect our earth....and politicians line their own pockets, hardly thinking of the damage they create along the way.....a sad reality we live with and see the damages everyday!
