Mind, Body and Spirit

View Original

Nothing enters, nothing leaves

Nothing enters and nothing leaves 

Unforgiving vacuum watches us thieves

Stealing from another and nature 

Rolling the dice on everyone’s future 

 

We’ll be immortalized through plastic

How long can we stretch nature’s elastic?

We are emptying nature’s reserve

There may be nothing left to conserve 

 

The effort of a million years gone in a flash 

As we turn what’s underground to cash

It’s no longer a balancing act 

Scales have tipped, in the race to extract 

 

Trees rally to heal nature’s scars

As we look to burn each other in wars

When we mend our thieving ways

Nature forgives, for it, it’s just a phase
