Discourse in discord
Revelation returns us to resolution
Now that our conflict subsides
We turn to pressing matters
Trifling issues aside
The rivers and lakes run with oil
Our toil digs us into the earth
But our senses remain ungrounded
Infernal air searing
We choke on chemical consequence
Our eyes tear for the sulphur
But no river of tears will run to the sea
A dessiccated world
There is no Atlantis nor Atlantic
No blue for green, only shattered brown
And a pale yellow sunlight
Plentiful plants
Merely past myths and legends in present
Even the germs struggle in arsenic fields
How will we survive
Conquered colonies
Invasive industries invent and innovate
War upon us and twice we die by millions
We suffered each other and persisted
But can we sustain this at nature's expense
Can we survive our own mistakes
Or will even death be insufficient
To cure the foolishness of an entire species
All will suffer the incarnation of information
That flows unguided by wisdom
The Earth overburdened by intelligence
And so it relieves itself of us
Belligerent storms, wage war on us
Belligerent storms, and hurricanes
Belligerent storms, with tidal waves
Belligerent storms, a cleansing flood
Belligerent storms, tornado winds
Infernal deserts grow
Glaciers waste away
Once locked in cold
Old life spreads
Alien diseases
We'll die by the billions
Join each other in dirt
Scolded by our ancestors
And those who were wise
We will suffer no God
But no Nature will suffer us
Do not forget our place
And our humble start
Or we will be reminded
By a humiliating end
