Planet Cries

Our planet cries, as the weak and oppressed, pay a price for wealth to rise, we pollute and consume, while we seal our doom but power is blind to see, what the scope of the crime will eventually lead to a preventable catastrophe The answers I fear, are too obvious and clear but will never be realized, by the politically paralyzed where there is no profit, to come from it, the leaders will not see fit to fix what has already been done We sacrifice our souls, for reasons no one knows, and work for the greater good we are never sure why, as our victims die, never told if we should try stop and stare, or rally to care, one planet to share, without our help will no longer be there should this not be enough Dollars and cents, the lower class repents, for the sins of the powers that lead we all do the work, to cultivate not shirk, the responsibilities to ensure that we all succeed
