Monolithic Ignorance

A doomsday declaration the signs we cannot ignore The oceans start to boil the dead wash up on our shores Rivers flow with toxins sickening all in their wake Swallowing the poison, savour its virulent taste Foolishly we followed our rulers into the abyss Critical mass no turning back we've fallen over the precipice Monolithic ignorance Devoid of intelligence Devolved comprehension Reversed progression Extinction rates growing mankind in a pestilent blight Cancerous, the disease spreads devouring all life The earth a barren wasteland, sulphurous smoke blacks out the skies A dead planet now expires before our dying eyes Those who sought to rule this realm have only meddled with it The errors of their foolish schemes have brought about our ruin
