The obnoxious wind whispers, “There is no civility in liberation.” Oppression is not of human nature, But of human creation The ache for passion, the lust for change A lush forest, serene after the rain. But the man in the sky needs your money And the wars are lacking funds Smothered by fresh air, life is at your throat. Hominid ruthlessness Debt and despair Depletion Extinction The free conform Wild mocks civilization Brisk air, the branches dance Vines climb walls like silent snakes A cold hiss, “Everything you know is wrong.”

Human Nature
The obnoxious wind whispers, “There is no civility in liberation.” Oppression is not of human nature, But of human creation The ache for passion, the lust for change A lush forest, serene after the rain. But the man in the sky needs your money And the wars are lacking funds Smothered by fresh air, life is at your throat. Hominid ruthlessness Debt and despair Depletion Extinction The free conform Wild mocks civilization Brisk air, the branches dance Vines climb walls like silent snakes A cold hiss, “Everything you know is wrong.”
