Overgrown

Nature overtaking the civilized world Like day overtaking night Like a flag being unfurled Draped over the human blight! The cities of yore show their wear The streets break and crack To make room for new life to bear The fruits of nature begin to attack... The mechanical slaves of the humans' reign Once killing nature with its smoky allure Now rust in the pouring rain While the bulls charge and gore The farms become lost The livestock set free into the wild The seed no longer is tossed The soil no longer riled In maybe a century or two All their evils will be undone In the end, machinery is slew Nature will have won. Sentience was a brief concept Surely not to happen again With nought but a hand inept At anything save destruction. But as works of fiction go This is realistic and true It will happen, whoa T'will happen too soon! So stop your wars of profanity End the profiteers' malice So you can save humanity From a story such as this.
