    this talk of coyboys
    yellow musk
    corn stalks
    have they grown talll this year?

    of all the pleasures
    of all that you love

    the quiet times
    the wine,

    where will you be
    when the shit
    turns around?

    mother earth is crying
    but this devestation
    is far from just saddness,
    there is rage.

    i am confused
    i am angered

    i am human

    things are changing

    Industry cares not for the screams of our earthen mother. And this should come as no surprise, since it is from her splintered bones and shredded flesh that it takes the materials for its production. But on the same token, who among the Lower classes can afford the time to fight this monster? It would be a wasted, futile effort. The only possibility for redemption is the way that we reflect our own Love for Nature to our children. May there come a day, I say, when we can burn all those horrors away! But I am a one to talk. I work in a paper factory. Of course, I live in a society that makes it impossible for me to scratch out a survival in any other way. We can't all be eco-warriors. Some of us just have to do what we have to do. But things will change, yes. Drastically from the looks of it. It is time.

    this world has seen much
    but it will be here what ever we do
    in darkness or light


    be true to you
    and life will be beautiful
    for you will pass this on and others will
    see its time to be themselves..

    as for the material world then thats a dyeing
    time......

    love n peace from saff
    to change is to grow ,to understand
    why is the life you live.....
