If we did find a new world,

In the vast array of worlds in space,

Would we ruin it like this one,

Or would we be able to keep it in God’s grace…

Would we drill for oil,

Would we kill its animal inhabitants,

Would we of its splendor spoil,

Or would we of a better life embrace,

Or would we destroy its innocence…

Man has of this world destroyed,

Making some of us quite very annoyed,

Maybe better we found another world out in spaces void,

Maybe there we can of man & his destruction avoid…

                                   …But I doubt it…
