Tomorrow

Ever certain ever near

As sunrise

Pales to crystal sphere

Ashes scatter

Windswept lands

Laying rest

Rapacious hands

Parasitic thoughts

Have waste

Chattles sweeten

Bitter-rain

To taste

Resources drowned

At oceans seize

Only echoes

Loiter

On inert breeze

Tomorrow etched

On earth's headstone

Today's demise

At man's intone

Taking more

Than need allowed

Fertile ground

To

Barren shroud

Still the footprints

Haunt the shore

Of genus

Ever taking more

Where life was once

Incessant bloom

Memory

And desecrate

Consume

The future raped

Of chance to be

Insolvent skies

Chase ruined sea

Where few on plinth

Dripped each excess

Sightless gaze

And void

Redress

Materialistic-will

Became

His faith

His hope

His future

Shame
