Ode to Earth

frozen cities,
no more snow,
too late for
I told you so’s.
Just the ash,
and filthy air
on the earth
that once was there.
trampled souls
upon the ground
where at one time
life was found.
But who put us in this place?
no one but the human race.
no one but our proud ancestors
no one but our sons and daughters.
pointing fingers
place the blame
but in the end
its all the same.
The words that come
from you and me
can also come
from he or she.
So take a look
at what you’re doing
see the trouble that you’re brewing.
see the things you can make right
and we may rest in peace tonight.
