not much more time will pass
or destiny unfurled
before we’re forced to breathe
apocalyptic gas
that coats the wheezing lung
brown air will steal the sun
the seas will rob the shore
and drown the old and young
today’s the hour to act
ensure that we destroy
the certainty that our
existence is attacked
or else Earth will be hurled
towards a fate unknown
and surely will become
a hostile toxic world
