We have bulldozed the Garden of Eden; we are nothing more than a parasite with an unending appetite for destruction in the name of civilization. Our monstrous monumental achievements can be viewed from space; we are the cataclysmic legion, the unbeaten ****** the demon of freedom with the desire to demolish and impoverish the last bastion arboretum. We are mad and frenzied in our passion; we are the phantasm assassin choking the very lungs we use to breathe the misanthrope who carves materialistic thrones to sit on and wait for exalted death while we replant trees in self-centered glorification of hope. We are doomed and we know it, but we still don't care; we question science and bemoan nature for wreaking havoc, stare into the microscope looking for answers in the reverent appliance of defiance waiting to find the sparks to eternal life there. We are the envy, the mistrust, the sadist and the snake; we squabble over the scraps of apple peel and douse ourselves in ice cubes whilst far away some African child walks 50 miles for a sip of clean water we are the plague of mistakes broadcasting hurricanes to entertain. We have bulldozed The Garden of Eden now only the snake remains and there is no escape freely offering the apple peel to those who obligingly accept our epitaph will read: humanity stepped back to be overshadowed by an ape.

Garden of Eden
We have bulldozed the Garden of Eden; we are nothing more than a parasite with an unending appetite for destruction in the name of civilization. Our monstrous monumental achievements can be viewed from space; we are the cataclysmic legion, the unbeaten ****** the demon of freedom with the desire to demolish and impoverish the last bastion arboretum. We are mad and frenzied in our passion; we are the phantasm assassin choking the very lungs we use to breathe the misanthrope who carves materialistic thrones to sit on and wait for exalted death while we replant trees in self-centered glorification of hope. We are doomed and we know it, but we still don't care; we question science and bemoan nature for wreaking havoc, stare into the microscope looking for answers in the reverent appliance of defiance waiting to find the sparks to eternal life there. We are the envy, the mistrust, the sadist and the snake; we squabble over the scraps of apple peel and douse ourselves in ice cubes whilst far away some African child walks 50 miles for a sip of clean water we are the plague of mistakes broadcasting hurricanes to entertain. We have bulldozed The Garden of Eden now only the snake remains and there is no escape freely offering the apple peel to those who obligingly accept our epitaph will read: humanity stepped back to be overshadowed by an ape.
We cut down the forests, we fill our seas with plastics and oil, we release harmful gases into the air, we deplete the ozone layer, we ignore climate change and fresh clean water will be a commodity in 50 years.
