Sacrifice
********************
Nature, she'll not sacrifice life!
The human race? Kill each other!
Nature, if she could see the strife!
She can't see, feels, knows things aren't right,
Isn't sacrifice, no, it's her plight!
The fault? Us, still undercover!
Pain she causes, a side effect,
Making right, why has she bothered
She knew not all would be perfect.
Sadly, we know our faults, ashamed,
In denial, our neighbours blamed!
Too late, clock has struck! Were clobbered!
