Disaster
342/365 - 24/52
And what do you mean,
Are hills not tall but steep,
When the gauge reads half a tank,
And yet you've run on fumes for a week,
And you and i once worked fine,
Until you split your lip against the side of my fist,
So why do we bother,
With all this fighting,
And especially at our age,
And you never did right,
Turning names,
So why break bones for them,
And blackened lights your rage,
And you and i once worked great,
And you had high hopes,
Sorry guys i am playing catch up again and have to do this weeks theme again over the weekend. :(
I had a few ideas for the theme of disaster, some which seemed appropriate for the current time we live in, however i felt it would be better to go a little further in what could be considered a disaster.
For me that would be the rate of which our population is growing as represented by the lights on earth. We as a species are taking every ecosystem over, cutting down rain forests, polluting the rivers, overfishing the seas, diverting natural water, dumping trash in ever increasing land fills and flooding the air with pollutants. I see a ever increasing trend of lack of responsability taking over and if we do nothing now, we are going to see the world forever changed with the burden of mans greed and lifestyle showing no respect for that which gives us life and sustains us. To see habitats destroyed, cities taking over natural land and woodlands and species going extinct....that is a real disaster, and something to think over.
