Man destroys

 

Man

destroys,

always

wanting

flashy new toys.

We dig up

resources,

like we dredge up pain.

We pollute the heavens,

then complain

when we are burnt by the rain.

All to create weapons

that will destroy us.

Over and over again.

 

Man destroys.

Annihilation

is our common

voice.

Always take

never give.

Honestly

we are up

the creak,

but Instead

of a boat

we are

piloting a sieve.

 

Is it harder

to plant a seed,

instead

of devouring

everything.

Slavishly savouring

the poisons

on which we decide to feast.

 

Destruction

is our name.

We poisoned

the lakes,

the oceans,

the seas.

We blighted

every tree.

Polluted

every memory.

We drill for oil

to power our

corrupted

degeneration machines.

 

One day

it will all

take its toll,

It will all

start to crumble

into dust,

it will fall.

We bombed

the atolls

with radiation,

created unsafe havens.

All to test a bomb

that we can't use

or it will trigger

armageddon.
