A Divers Prayer

I hope people will open their eyes 
Open them to what I'm saying
Listen to what the minority are saying. 
I pray they stop pushing us away 
That they start listening to what we have to say. 
I pray to God above 
For support and encouragement
To continue to do what I am doing. 
I pray that they won't see us as environmentalists 
As people who need to be shut away
But that we are people who want people to wake up 
Wake up from their states of hypnosis 
Look and see what we are doing is destructive. 
I pray they see it before it's too late. 
But will my prayers be heard? 
Or will everyone go about their lives 
Hypnotized and zombie-like  
To the world around them.

hypnotized and zombie-like to the world around them. This describes what seems to be happening perfectly.
