Man, Leave Me Be
The world waits in anticipation
And all factions shudder in constipation
As ills fare the lands.
Though man continues the drill
Where wealth accumulates on the grill
And the resources slowly decay
Leaving us none to portray.
The desire to overcome our state of paralysis
Permeates the forces of our psychosis
Whence shall we let things be
Known that where man perpetually derails
Nature permanently prevails
Whence shall we recall our sanctity
So the evolutionary thoughts of our sanity
Rejuvenates the life so punctured
Known that though sometimes uncultured
Man is only a product so nurtured.
Life shall not be judged
By what we refuse to create
For the elements of our morbid taste
Leads us to senselessly tamper
Creations designed not to be hampered.
Life shall be judged
By the things we refuse to destroy
For our continued insensitivity towards creation
Is an unconscious invitation
To the unfathomable wrath of nature
Dealt with a severity we cannot suture.
Let us think
But not let thought become our master;
Let us work
But not let work become our detractor;
Let us live
For life is a gift without reciprocation.
Let us Love
For love is an appreciation of life
What is life without love
What is love without passion
What is passion without pain
What is pain without comfort
What is comfort without peace
What is peace without war
What is war without want
What is want without need
What is need without happiness
What is happiness without danger
What is danger without action
What is action without desire
What is desire without woman
What is woman without man
And, what is man without GOD
In all, let not our minds falter
For the mind that falters, falters all
Just as the eye that alters, alters all
And the spectators become speculators
Given that speculators
Are agents of destruction
Man, be mindful to not cremate
That which you cannot create
