Even the cockroaches are dying…

Poem Artwork

All manner of animal becoming extinct,

To nuclear waste & global warming is it linked,

Let me be as much as I can herein succinct,

Man & animal & this our mother earth are all interlinked…

 

We human beings have of our planets eco-system,

Destroyed it so well its tantamount to murder,

So many species have died since mans inception,

For God to think that man might be good,

Was a complete and total deception…

 

Did God create cancer, aids, & all other manner of disease,

No way as man inhabits & wreaks havoc upon our earth,

Man is here, no way can we change that, but not for mirth,

Humans are here to destroy themselves eventually,

For to halt the destruction, not even to God can we now appease…

The world has become a boat where everybody, because for the lack of place, are standing up.
But then, are some very stupid people that for a buck or two are rocking the boat! ! !

We are a self-destructive bunch, and seem to want to take the rest of the creatures with us. Just heard that we are suffocating bulldogs to get the 'look' we want.

May we have to walk on stiletto heels in Chinese women's shoes.

Hard to say that God has planned or if he has a plan but it does look we are leading ourselves to doom and gloom.

We are the Earth's undoing ... sad write of mankind's inhumanities to God's creatures and our own brothers and sisters. Well done.
