Arrogance Unleashed

As the world’s nations fall when all were once strong Like proud golden lions roaring unsure in the darkness While gazelles and antelopes graze watchful in the night Their money and power tremble challenging their might All this labor, Russia, China, Brazil or the United States Creating electrical, technical, chemical, military power While the humanity around us stands summoned to the fight Nearby the mountains, oceans and seas dare life as a right The predators plan and scheme while others try to create Works of kindness and goodness and sharing Nature joins with coldness attacking either side uncaring While at our arrogance the hyenas laugh in the moonlight As the earth undoes our schemes with a deadly blight
