#WritcoPoemPrompt36
Rising oceans,
A warming globe,
Savage storms,
A warning foretold,
Centuries old,
Still ignored,
Despite the waves creeping furter up shore,
Weve had our chances,
Set our goals,
We tried our best,
But did not succeed,
A disaster beyond our means,
A generation united,
Considered Naive,
Now the waters lapping at our knees,
We dig the holes to our watery graves,
For we are lives that cant be saved,
Ignorance guided us,
Lies decieved,
We believed our elders wore hearts on their sleaves,
It was only blood,
Of forest, cleared,
Where cries of animals fell on deaf ears,
They called it sustainable,
They were wrong,
Weve reach the point of to far gone...
Time is ticking,
They grow old,
Watching their choices slowly unfold,
The children are learning,
They know how it will end,
Still they try to turn this thing on it head,
Were sorry you are broken,
Sorry you tried,
Buckle your seatbelt,
Prepare for the ride,
Our only option,
A place in the stars,
Because we were to lazy to do anything but flee to mars.
