Where Are We Headed
Where are we headed
Where do we go
The snake is two headed
It’s bite is close
In the garden of eve
Will we persevere
Is this maroon mystery
drenched in black fear
Or do we get it wrong
Thinking too much
Is all really predestined
After the apple touched
Lips longing for fruit
Forbidden or not
Who says you are a fool
I cannot only God
We think we are smart
flying silver drones on Mars
We explore stars
And ignore inner hearts
Where are we headed
When we can pollute our earth
Ignoring the aftermath dreaded
Raping the environment like jerks
Do we think we can
Outsmart Mother Nature
Come up with a plan
For when we have to face her?
Where are we headed Mars?
You think we will get a new start
When we blew our own earthly chance
Ignoring the Universe in charge?
