Look not at the Earth

[Byron]

Look not at the earth, or its wealth, or its spoils.
Look not at the choices of man and his toils.
Look not at the glories of matter or metals
Which man has created to sell to his vassals.

Look to yourself when the earth has been plundered
Look to yourself when the governments thunder
You can’t blame the men who have made the wrong choices
You sat back and watched without raising your voices

Pollution is rampant, the atmosphere’s rotten
In a scale of good species,
we’re
at
the
bottom

[lizzytysh]

Excellent! As one who's action is at a personal level in some areas and a contributing level in others, this still causes me to be aware of how much more I could still be doing. I really like your perspective regarding where we are in the "hierarchy."
