The world as we know it could be a nice place to be, but the only thing wrong with it is the human insanity. For without the human race on the face of this earth, what a great place this would be, of life and worth. Now please make no mistake, I'm not pointing the finger, but in truth, Hell on Earth, now there's a ringer. We the people have caused pollution, destruction and hate, now we are forced to live in this world, the one we have made. If we could ask God for one more big undeserved favor, "Please God, send Your Son back here to just be our Savior." You have given us a place that we can call home, but what have we done here? Just destroyed our own. You have given us warnings that our end maybe near, But what do we care? Most are to greedy to care or fear. We think that with our assets, both material and cash, that we will be able to buy our forgiveness and save our ass. As You have told us, with You the greedy are poor and the poor are rich, but little do we believe You, now ain't that a bitch? We whine and complain whenever something goes awry, but who's gonna listen to our shit when we continually cry? We should do this planet, Mother Earth, a big favor, and stop all of our bullshit, polluting, and stupid behavior. We'll go from Alpha to Omega, for sure there will be a day, because the end will come again if we don't change our evil ways. We must learn to control our stupid little urges, because before you know it we will hear our own funeral dirges. We should return this planet to it's own simple way of life, the ameboea or animal, but not to us the human, lifes parasite. Soon this will happen, because we'll get a scare, and some silly bastard will start the nuclear warfare. After the first missle gets fired, one thing on which you can count, that the people will die and the dead bodies will mount. Noone will be left standing to dig the mass grave, they will be screaming and fighting for their own measly lives to save. While we stand here and watch the acid rain fall from the sky, you might awaken and notice the tear in my eye. The warm, happy days are no more than a faint memory, because the sun may never rise again, at least not for us to see. As the blizzard due in December now arrives in July, we now realize that our life is over, it's our time to die. The last person on earth now can ask "Just what did start this insanity?" If he can look back and remember the past, his answer will be- "Humanity!"
Reason for writing:
All of the different governments and radicals in this world with nuke ability and not enough brains to figure out that in a nuke war - there ain't any winner, everyone loses.
