Destruction




Destruction
by Lord R.e. Taylor

Homo sapiens have ruled the world for a long time
Ruining every piece of land they touched
Killing animals for any reason they could think of
Driving most into a total extinction
They destroyed the environment
Trees, air, water and natural resources 
They did not escape their touch
Even the vastness of the world’s oceans weren’t untouched
Oil slicks and massive islands of garbage cover the surface
Plastic pop bottles float across the bottom
Taking four hundred and fifty years to decompose
One thing about the homo sapiens which came so long ago
They love leaving their prints on everything they destroyed
That is just the way we are
