#14 Consequences

We nurtured you,

gave you our very souls,

you are because we are,

Yet you ungrateful wretches

destroy, and kill us without abandon

never pausing to think that the air

you breathe is a gift from us

We treated you like children

and you turned on us

long we have kept quiet

given you chances to redeem yourself

but the time has come to cut the cord

to take a step back and watch you chase your doom

for as we disappear so will you

and won’t that be glorious?
