Dark Night 3 (greed)

the consequence of excess is showing now
the earth is waking up to all the greed
the raping of it's forests and it's air
the taking of it's life by slow degree

the arctic shelf is melting rapidly
fires are blazing storms are taking hold
the ocean is rebelling openly
as our race is being slowly told

it is to late to take the damage back
it's time to reclaim everything that's lost
our selfish notions put us on the rack
and into memory we are slowly tossed

in my heart i pray this isn't so
i fear it's where the human race may go
