Save Yourself 4 of 4

The screen kept painting the history for the team In horrific scenery as the chickens came home to roost: The wars supported in media by ideologies it would seem, Whereas deeper was the fight for resources needed for economic boost; The environmental disaster with each new technological advance Advertised as "CO2-saving", disregarding the manufacturing fall out As resources were dug out of Earth's internals, not giving life a chance, Leaving disasters in the wake of "Eco-friendly" mining in the South; The over-fishing, over-eating, over-mining, over-everything Requiring the support of a Nature, willing, but drawn To the limit of breaking without empathy, care, understanding, Foresight; just over-reaching to pull all put there from Life's dawn, To the point there was none left, no-one left. "Remember the Galapagos heads documentary on TV?" Tsal asked Pezal. "That was History warning of being Nature-deaf, But nobody listened." And they turned to get back onto their spaceship, While the screen continued by looping every truly Eco-friendly initiative conceived To amplify Nature's warnings, to pause the frantic rush Of capitalistic gain-hunt. But all this as naught was perceived And even Earth Hour's darkness, though laudable, in the din of Nasdaq was but a hush. (c) Nyonglema
