The infinite patience of undisturbed time Let our world evolve. And each piece Linked and locked with others. Then we came and forced the land To yield more than it wished. And washed our waste into the sea. Then we came and made the rivers flow The way we wanted. Now lakes shrink And winds of salt and dust parch the earth. We tipped over the balance of aeons Putting profit of the moment above all else Making what was various uniform. |
