We will bleed our mother earth
Until she withers, exhausted
And then we will move on
For we are parasites
Another oasis will suffer
From fatal infestation
It‘s all there, in our books
We know what we do
Compromise is not an option
Even though it is the right way
We care not, for tomorrow
When all can be ours today
Our greed is our nemesis
As, in vanity, we battle ceaselessly
To control all that is around us
To a point of pollution
For in starving our mother earth
In pursuit of perceived perfection
We starve ourselves
Our weakness is our undoing
Should our Leaders survive...
It will be their turn to suffer
And they too will fall - Eradicated
As they eradicated lesser life forms
For there is always a common justice
We were taught by our elders
The simple folly of Pride
...yet we learned nothing.

The majority realise, the minority do realise, their wealth and fake power is too much for their tiny minds.

However, if you really get into history, not from the history books or from the glorified movies and novels that give an impression that times were better than they really were. If you get down to the gut level of living, you will see that times have always been better as time marches on. Parts of the earth have been raped before… many times. We don't learn well from the past.
But, you are right. We have become foolish consumers of things. All part of our enculturation into a world that greed is honored and given power over frugality and caring for the environment. When will people see that material things are not what makes them happy? I don't know. But, while we can change rapidly and adapt to almost anything, we usually don't see the handwriting on the wall until it slaps us in the face.
A good write to awaken the thought processes to the possible.
