Despair of Humankind

Scars are on the ozone The writings in the sky The smoke signals ain’t good Spelling disaster for mankind The Oceans are full of litter Forests put under the plough Mother nature’s left crying At the antics of mankind You see it on the tele Read it in the news Then you nip off to McDonald’s In your nitrogen dioxide spewing car Chatting while you’re driving About a holiday in a far off land Big business is making profits Paying Politian’s to stay quiet You live your life like nothing changed I despair of humankind.
