Cracked Reality

Overpopulated
Planned destruction
It's a deliberate Holocaust.

Lost in the present wasteland
Of what used to thrive
While everyone says "it's fine".

But it isn't.
Let's ignore the fact that our atmosphere
Is an oven preheating.

Bare, emaciated children.
Starving;
Desperate.

Help is hopeless.
The only things they receive are books
That say it's all according to plan.

To whose plan?

All I can say about that is
If there is a God,
He's one malevolent son of a bitch.

Meanwhile, here in the U.S.
Greed, ungratefulness
It's all rampant.

We could help turn off the oven
That is our atmosphere.
But we don't.

We could give
To all those impoverished.
But we don't.

Instead, we pretend it isn't happening.
We live in our own, sheltered world.
For now.

When that facade shatters
And we're finally exposed
We will wish we had.
