There’s no longer much stretch left
of our Species’ narrowing path
which had we back then been deft
could’ve used to brake the planet’s wrath

Instead we caused Earth to crumble
by our consumption willful
Recklessly we kept up rumble
in feigned ignorance skillful

Not prepared to restrain
we decided to downplay
that short time shall remain
until our Species’ doomsday

Our shuffling so far in dismal dance
assures that our Species stands no chance
