Planet
New World-Energy order.
Food and supplies desperately needed.
Entire villages destroyed.
The poor fear soarin‘ food prices.
Quake death-tolls rising.
Deadliest health problems.
Rescue and reconstruction.
The missing and the homeless.
Search and recovery.
Ruins after the disaster.
Learning in the real world.
Speculators. Rising gas prices.
Oil price affects life.
Trading scandals. Goals converge.
Passions unite. Born into
a cynical and untruthful world
of sell-out adults who don‘t care
‘bout their children who understand
quickly and the hard way:
don’t trust old people who have nothing to lose.
We are born on a planet
with changin’ climate, both inner and outer.
Values collapse. It’s either food or housing –
or none of them.
Volcanoes erupting, earthquakes, cyclones.
Wars and crimes increasing,
energy dwindling.
Prices rising, drinkin’ water fading.
Slums expanding as does hopelessness.
Silicon valley loneliness.
Endless industrialisation.
Madness and no work.
Another army, another bomb.
Another level of cruelty
or another level
of love and change.
