World On Verge of Self Destruction
The world teeters on the verge of self destruction
As humankind devours human kindness
In missions bereft of conciliation construction
Which rebuilds and fields flowers of happiness.
The world withers amid self deceit
When humankind withholds warmth
Preferring to promote self conceit
In the midst of love and laughter dearth.
The world impoverishes dishes
Teeming with understanding and empathy
As humankind extinguishes species of fishes
Whose bowels and vowels spell sympathy.
The world teeters within an ace of insanity
When technology metamorphoses into a weapon
Primed to wreak fabrics woven in human dignity
Disintegrate as revenue at all costs becomes the only business reason.
