Human beings have forsaken their roots
Elevating themselves on the pedestal of knowledge
Breaking sacred laws of the natural world
Submerging themselves in uncertainty
The nature of nature is selflessness and generosity
It is not wild or reckless but
If you disobey the laws of nature, you will suffer the consequences
Nature has given us plenty of knowledge, understanding and wisdom
Yet, with our egomaniac tendencies, we stand on the podium of conquerers, tenacious achievers and selfishness
Bringing destruction to the natural environment
Vandalizing the sacred stillness behind everything
Destroying the spiritual connections
Annihilating the manuscript of a peaceful and harmonious existence of all life
Paving a path of destruction
With our darkened and delusional pysche
Burying ourselves in the rubble of our own creation
Totally lost in the wilderness of our own madness
You reap what you sow is the mantra for today, tomorrow and forever
