All the endless meetings All the public statements on Targets, aims and goals All the talk about clearly Moving the needle Getting down to zero Are nothing but words. Oblivious to our words Nature continues on the path All our lack of action Has determined for it. Warm feelings of supposed concern Mask the truths we must face. Ridden with signs of what is to come We think our world can be maintained The way we use and abuse it. They do not serve who only stand and wait. The knowing choice of inaction will Leave us with a tomorrow We can scarcely handle. |
