(On Earth Day)
Let me tell you dear humankind
You continue to exploit me, and you would find
If you do not treat me with care, you would not thrive
I sustain every creature that is alive
With your ingenuity you have created this anthropocene
In every natural process you've tried to intervene
In a way that benefits no one but your creed
Me and my other inhabitants are subservient to your greed
But you're disrupting the ecological balance delicate
That had taken billions of years to create
You have intelligence unparalleled of course
But even with that, you cannot force
The natural world to dance to your tune
Learn to respect it, this warning cannot come too soon
I am in existence to distribute my bounty
Among all my inhabitants, not just humanity
