1.
Rumor has it on heavens above,
Among the angels’ divine sphere,
That God after very much though
Decided in man’s life to interfere.
2.
For He has observed Man’s mistakes,
That lately, too many came to be,
To endanger the whole of creation
Act with which God can never agree.
3.
So, the Lord has most recently chosen,
The book of life before long to reprint
Revising certain of its very old chapters
While others out will leave, He did hint.
4.
The concern of humans is now to know
Which chapters the book will not contain,
Which are going to be, somehow, revised
And which intact will forever remain?
5.
What was heard through the vine though,
It was Man’s huge and unbearable vanity
That made our almighty Lord and creator
Finally, to exclude the chapter on humanity.
6.
The reason our God in His infinitive wisdom
Reached such an unexpected for Mankind conclusion,
Is the fact that Man during his reign on earth
Has hurt our planet with his insensitive intrusion.
7.
It might still be time for Man overall to be saved,
If he started correcting his many mistakes soon,
Beginning by respecting life and the whole planet,
And stop behaving as a dim-witted buffoon.

* According to a UN report, We are in an era where
climate change isn’t some kind of future hypothetical but a present concern, and nobody is going to be untouched by it, therefore, measures must be taken immediately to save ourselves and the planet.
