New Order

S ucculent forests now barren, almost dying I n the hands of thieves hungry for fortune, while G lobal warming crushes nature’s environ N otwithstanding war’s incessant slaughter, O ppressing a human's right to blessed life... F ear sown on streets, power of crime --the law. T hese are but only the pursuits of our new order, the H unts consuming nations, a devious act of indignity, as E very day we hear the wails from exiled children. T ell me, shall the next generation inherit this bondage? I s destruction of Mother Earth our 'noble' tribute? M urderers are we licensed to plunder recklessly , an E ntitlement quite common, snuffing hopes of a future, S oiled by a culture of excessive barbarism!
