Your Choice

Devastated with fear
Taken over by tragedy
To positive succession
Not able to react to another horrible situation
Imagine our futures
To which we are the authors
The creators of our own falling story lines
Devoted activist and knowledge available
Yet no one takes time to listen

No matter your beliefs
It is agreed that we have been blessed
With so many opportunities
We are honored by the presence
Of so many species that will soon dwindle away.

This planets greatest weakness
Is our own existence
And careless behavior
A caliginous future inherits us
With the consequences of our poor actions

Their lives involve expansions of disease
Terrifying disasters, and unbearable gases hovering.
Nothing will grow, along with no water flow.
Flooding and drought take control
Life won't ever be the same
Lingering on your doorsteps
The decision awaits you

Global warming has hit us, solid and impatient.
Now we decide, change, or suffer?


This will certify that the above work is completely original.

Why do you write? they ask us. The truth is we don't know. It is just being at a point where the only thing you can trust is a pen and paper. They say that the stories are tragic. But they are our lives! What  we need to survive. To get it out, put it out, shout it out. Because that's what it's all about.
