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.
