Poetry Thursday 162 - The Darkness

 Even the most sceptical of client change deniers have come to realise that the situation in the world is so serious that everyone, no matter how small, should be doing their bit to improve the treatment of our Earth. 



The Darkness

 

Hello darkness on which we depend,

that reliance must come to an end,

the fragile Earth cannot withstand,

much more of your poisoning brand.

 

In spite of giving medicine and plastic,

providing energy at levels fantastic,

giving employment to thousands,

you cause many of Earth's desecrations.

 

For the sake of future generations,

to protect the Earth's renewing systems,

humans must abandon the ubiquitous darkness,

and move towards restorative greenness.

 

Influence of the darkness is well ingrained,

powers-that-be are of entrenched mind,

frightened to take the necessary steps,

rip off the plaster without the forceps.


 

Time is of the essence,

 gone is opportunity for acquiescence,

the toxins need to be removed,

and now, for Earth to be improved.
