Melting Hope
We evolved rapidly, riding on our distinction. Even as we pushed other species to their edge of extinction We made the blue planet spin towards a scary red future Our price for playing God and messing with Mother nature We managed to boil the Oceans, not with flame or fire and yet we refuse to curb our apathy and cold-hearted desire We wonder why the tides rise higher and winds lash faster even as we blame each other for all disaster Will we slow down and pay heed? Or has greed become our overbearing need? Can green cool this hot crucible? Or is it too late and the damage irreversible? Will we do it differently if we start over again Will we give this earth a better bargain? How dare you? roars mother nature for taking her down this slope She can't bear to witness another pain of melting hope
