Before It Is Too Late

Wars, famine and pestilences. Death comes with a pension. Poor people in this country. Poverty all over, feeling empty. Diseases spreading all over the globe. Some mutated, some foretold. Global warming sends a warning. No one listens, it keeps on moaning. Clean water becoming undrinkable. Poisoning into the unthinkable. Beauty that the world once held. Destroyed by only a single shell. Threats of war, they will come due. A price to pay, because we are cruel. Extinction presages as our future. If we don’t all heed the bigger picture. Terrorism is the world's axis of evil. World in court, everyone is blameful. We must be meaningful and do our part. It's never to late to have a change of heart.
