Here is the News
Here is the news
today,
the planets burning
fires and war,
we are too steeped
in fantasy,
being internet
connected,
we don’t care
anymore,
Keep looking away,
I say,
Keep looking away.
The real world’s
crying,
in tears
of sky
and acid rain,
killing this haven
of life,
once gone,
Mother Earth
wont keep,
coming back again.
Keep looking away,
I say
keep looking away.
The oil fires
are raging,
we’re battling
over lies
and truths,
waving our flags
over graveyards,
craters of violence,
the disowned,
abandoned,
the down trodden
and abused.
Looking away,
they say,
keep looking away.
We’re addicted
to power,
ideas,
cultures and crimes,
hidden from humanity, tricked
by our streaming consciences,
loyalty to politics,
beliefs and values,
in the countries
of the blind.
Looking away,
they say,
keep looking away.
Yet still the sun rises,
the birds migrate
at the season’s end,
the months turn under starlight,
distances, death,
time and more,
but eternity
won’t forgive us
it’s far too late
Looking away,
they say,
keep looking away.
