   The Day the Future Arrives
Now we should face
The blunt truths about
Our world today:
Loss and extinction and
The greatest myth of all:
Limitless resilience of nature.

Now we should renounce
Our lives of unfounded plenty and
Reject the cruelest fairytale of all:
Infinite growth in a finite world.

Now we should realise
The paths we have to take
To avoid the biggest lie of all:
Sit on our hands and
The problem will go away.

Now we should learn
The meaning of support and sustain
And be prepared for the day
The future arrives.
