What Should I Do With You

I, like humans, was given the task to create. But what did you do? You berated, plundered and infuriated me. You dug, chapped, and pillage Nothing is left of my foliage My trees, land and sea, Nothing is left clean, as was given thee. What should I do with you? Multiply and become many But you rather make penny And don’t forget to take care of all the creatures. But you rather rape the land of its treasures Vegetation from the land you should be fed But only few did Have dominion over the animals, not man Yet you went and displaced the indigenous from their lands What must I do with you? You indoctrinated falseness Colonised, and made a mess Plotting to kill and control the global populous Creating more chaos Now you’re sitting and acting pious What am I going to do with you? More and more are getting poorer Disease and pandemic is ravaging them faster And many are thinking “to die is better” Yet there is enough for everyone But the greed of the one percent Owned most of the land Should I stretch out my hand and eradicate everyone? What do you think I should do? Hurry! There is not enough time If you come together and work what is fine Reversing the evil of your forefathers Reaping the benefit of something greater Right the wrong, make it better Will give you the sight of a brighter future Together as one you all should go. That is what y’all should do
