Shallows

Concerning our hobbled earth~ God must yearn to start from scratch we've been given multiple chances but have turned Eden into ash. Our minds are filled with plastic thoughts and the burrs of nuclear rust. A hellish-metal hearted-selfish species that no other species should ever trust. War species-filthy DNA staircase... bleach it clean with a mutating gene splashed with peaceful sequences. Until our gilded God intercedes he should float a no vacancy sign upon the shallows of our minds.

The decline of the planet, hello? Did not begin in 2016! But we humans blame one person instead blaming all of humanity for all decades previous. Not saying you said that, Anthony. I also think we can choose to see good or evil. Nobody had written about electro smog in any poem far. It's killing us, animals and insects. And we are the ones buying devices, pollution extraordinaire...right in our homes and next door.
