Time and Dust (Dark Poem)
-
NB: A lot of thoughts about climate change lately.
Time and Dust
At the end of all ends
When Man has long since left
There is but time and dust remaining
No more fear or deathAnd so you may ask
What bought upon our fall?
How did we reach this end of ends?
Why are we no more?Well that one is easy
The answer is the same as always
Greed and lust…
That is why
That is how we came to die.Though I do wonder…
Could our story have been different?
I like to hope it could have…
If only we had listened.But listening is our weakness
Doing is not our strength
We are easily swayed
We focus on now and not the nect day.So perhaps we were doomed from long ago
And we just telling oursalves a lie
We told ourselves things were fine
As we came about our time…So I should not wonder so loudly
When the truth is before me like this
Time and dust…
Thats what is left…
And I feel nothing will change it.
