Modern Sapien's Burden

K . . . will it matter who started it first?
 
Do we even really know...
 
Most think they can get away with it
 
but this burden is forged like a steel tumor to the foreheads of all:
 
every unethical consumer regardless their colour or creed
 
Our hands saturated with the karma of this deed
 
This exploitation of broken souls
 
The pollution that causes Nature woes
 
I am not exempt from the guilt
 
the culpability as
 
accessory to the crime
 
Which ology will critical reason adopt
 
to assess this situation and stop
 
this rot,
 
this festering moral and vital decay?

When will science catch up and confess,
 
"Humanity is in spiritual poverty!"
 
That our obsession for control has lead us to utter depravity
 
an essenceless mass breaking apart under the law of entropy
 
for having abandoned the Binder of life;
 
for having blocked out the Contender
 
who wrestles only to give a blessing;
 
for having settled for the curse?
 
Could anything be worse?
