Door To Decision

by Yasmin

We come from a turbulent past

To an info-age moving way to fast

The fate of these lands

Is now placed in our hands

Will we bring destruction to an end

Will we have the power to mend

Save this fragile dreamland

Wash away our footprints in the sand

Global warming is causing weather changes right before our eyes

But we still blacken our skies

Sunrays take less time to burn our faces

But we still destroy our rain forests and just leave empty spaces

The men spill out of the factories everywhere

Punching their time clocks basically unaware

Don�t realize what's happening to the big picture

The massive devastation of the atmospheric mixture

Every day go through their daily motions

Waiting it out for measly promotions

Distant stares and silent prayers

Monday to Friday . . . say goodbye

Our oceans are slicked with oil spills

Our waterways full of toxic waste that kills

We build our cities on mountains of pollution

Without an environmental solution

We live our lives in search of wealth

In the process damage our good health

Crime stories are found on every newspaper page

People loosing control in an uncertain age

The victims of greed are getting younger

In a world that still allows their hunger

Our petty problems make us hang down our heads

While million's go unfed

Desire unfolds the light of our day

But we cannot give in to the subtle decay

We must rise above the haze descending

Toward mass action mending

We must take control of our actions today or the children of tomorrow will be the one's to
pay

The new innkeepers shall soon take charge of the next generation�s voyage at large

Trends are patterned and patterns trended But man's damage must be ended!
