We poison,
We overwhelm,
We physically damage.
Living our lives,
Unknowing, unaware.
We march forward
Rank upon rank,
Destroying, pillaging,
Taking what we want.
Using nature
In the worst way we can
As a slave to replace,
Or commons to abuse.
We shove and we push,
Her systems so hard
That the cycles are breaking
And we start to suffer
As our world falls apart.
But there is an answer,
A solution that’s clear
Denying despair.
We need to re-think ,
Re-train, re-direct
The ranks.
We need
To acknowledge,
Where we live,
Understand,
That there is no such place,
As “away”.
We need,
To step into
Our place,
In nature.
To realise,
That circles have,
No end.
To gaze into the future
And tell those,
Who came after,
That we took,
The RoundView.
