we have done this to ourselves

Post by sonofthesun » March 17th, 2010, 2:35 am

to shun nature
is a crime against self
as we are a part of
intrinsic in it
but we don hats of greatness
pretending we are above
that which gave birth to us
to cast ones mother out
would seem a disgrace
but that is what has been done
and exalted daily
there is talk of the hereafter
but what of the matter of today
and the actions we perpetrate
heedless of repurcusions
in order for momentary profit
the universe does not forget
can you spend your chance
needless
i ask you to reconsider
what is it you need
its very simple if you think of it
look to the children
and their expectance of goodness
of those that teach them
what it is to be an adult
There is no empty space

Here, here. And we must, I think, give voice to the that which cannot speak loudly enough or quicly enough for the obtuse to hear before it's much beyond toolate. I like your motivations.
