The Point of No Return

Sudden and Without Warning

By Amos GladePublished 9 months ago • Updated 9 months ago • 1 min read

This message goes out to whom it may concern

Here in my vast traveling sojourn

A witness to humanities burn

Inches closer to the event horizon

Bear in mind there’s no surprising

The fighting

The dying

Why keep trying?

Forewarn

Forlorn

No matter how stern

For all of those who desire uprising

A better life is what you yearn

Then take action to enliven

A population of unconcern

But one person alone cannot upturn

A civilization surrounded by siren

Taciturn

With eyes downturn

Innocence siphoned

Everything within you discerned

A leadership that cannot wizen

Say farewell, there's no U-turn

You’ve found the point of no return

The earth must heal and be reborn
