Deserve

Do you care about future generations?

By Skyler SaundersPublished 8 years ago • 1 min read

If conditions on

This Earth become too

Much to bear, will the

Great minds devise a

Way to colonize

The Moon, Mars or a

Different space body?

Talk of climate change

Is a blazing fire

To all those who have

Hair. Why do people

Rush to say that they

Wish to save the Earth

When they damn man and

His mind? Why do folks

Not see that the years

Beyond our current

Time are for those who

Preach altruism?

The descendants who

Will occupy the

Future will likely

Leave this pale blue orb

For grey or red soil.

Maybe there will be

Celestial spheres

Which folks will call home.

If they don’t figure

Out how to let free

The brains of the men

And women who make

Up the province of

Science, then mankind

Does not deserve to

Continue living.
