Full of wonder and imagination,
beyond beautiful, Earth's a paradise.
But humanity's role is in question,
for we do untold things that make no sense.
Food's plentiful, yet folks face starvation
if they are born in a third-world nation.
As the glaciers melt and the forests burn;
Climate change is fueling disasters.
And yet, global warming's labeled a hoax;
as politicians maintain it's fiction.
Their economy might take a downturn:
and so, they pretend it's of no concern.
Unless we all agree to change our ways,
Gaia will inflict changes upon us.
As seas rise, floods and famine will follow;
pandemics and plagues won't lag far behind.
And displaced migrants will form the next phase
in hastening humanity's end days.
