fauxcroft

Within the green woods

Beneath the trees,

Brewing silently under

Mulching leaves,

Being fed by heat.

Below the soil

The heartbeat of

Mother Earth boils,

At the nature we have spoiled.

The verdancy of the canopy

Hiding, disguising many things

That in our arrogance

We often miss

That we can’t continue 

On like this

Living reckless

Without a care

For environmental 

Dangers lurk everywhere

Brought about by

Ignorant greed

To fill their pockets

Earth bleeds

But the warning signs

A looming overhead

And our apocalypse 

Will be met

If we don’t learn to

Change our ways

Then Mother Earth

May make us pay.
