    Search on wayward wanderer
    Brother
    Search on man
    Cool savior
    Indian lover

    Our world is clouded
    And paved smooth
    Where the meadows once rolled
    Simple gradual destruction
    We murder our mother
    With smiles on our faces

    Search on man
    Search on
    Only if we can sacrifice luxury
    And unbind the earth
    Will nature be restored
    Search on
    You calm collected humble messenger person

    The candle flickers
    The world wavers
    Everything is broken up
    And wistfully fades to gray

    I rather agree with George Carlin when he emphatically states that it is not the Earth that needs saving, but ourselves. She takes each ravaging with bored indifference, adjusting herself to the need of the Sun. It is we and we alone that will suffer the consequence of that transgression so euphemistically termed "Industry" and stamped with the Tabus of "Progress".

    Well I love George Carlin. He is my favorite comedian in fact, I watched some of his shows last night, but I'm going to have to disagree with him on that one. I mean we are killing this earth which brings and maintains our lives.

    Therefore, consequently, we make it unable to support our form of life. However, when it discards us, it would be rather presumptuous to think it won't support some other. Indeed, it is rather presumptuous for us to think that there is not Life on the Sun itself. It may be beyond our Comprehension because that particular atmosphere does not meet the conditions needed to support our living organism, specifically...

    Indeed, think of Ultra-Violet Light. It could not be discerned by our "naked" eyes for many millennia, yet it still "lives". And the effect it has on us, eh?

    Just food for that monstrous abberation which some refer to as "thought".

    I understand that, I just think we should be a little more grateful for the earth. It has a right to life too.
