Exploring the Mind

Finding yourself on a Ride, Discovering to Hide

I continue to hear of upcoming disasters ;

Pollution, extinction, overpopulation move us faster

Towards our end –

Which we ignore, since what does not change is our situation.

But those who try and recommend,

That to live past the near future something should be done.

What? I worry, may have to be drastic,

It may not be pretty, nor democratic,

We may cause 1 problem to solve another ;

Public consciousness must rise, and think of our pride,

Think of what's most important: turning the tide,

Of the life of my child, still unborn –

What world will this human live to form?

What will we pass on to which they must conform?

Our ancestors pray, eyes closed

They look away, from the path which lay

From God's perspective, the future displays

The world's history, now an unread essay.
