Unless

Let us mull over the necessities
Our most basic needs in life
Urban logic and habit born acuity
Our guide of worth and right

Provision for food, water, shelter
The mandate requirement set
For any domesticated animal
Be it man, woman, child or pet

If a simple life of frugality
Is not exactly to your taste
Striving to live life on the lean
No margin for err or waste  

Take the road most travelled
The climb of deep descent
Avoiding cracks of the corrupted
Strewn throughout this trench

Our overt interest to consume
Has blueprinted a nativity scene
Futuristic painting of Mother’s ruin
The Lesson: Heed now Earth’s Scream
