our future

If earth was a person it's head would be made up of
all the gutters and violence.
The head would be placed on
the barren battlefield of the nuclear wars.
All the ashes of this barren wasteland form together to create
a beautiful Pheonix.
The burnt trees would grow a new.
The waters would run clear.
The breeze would blow near.
The streets of the USA would be scorched
by the hatred of others.
The sky would turn black with all of our pollutions.
The few survivors would wish they weren't.
would you wish you weren't
part of our future?
