November PAD Challenge 2021: The End of the World

 

Giant wave, Portugal
By unknown photographer on One Big Photo

only the elders remembered a blue sky
such will be the lamentation wailed by survivors
when we can no longer armour the planet against the irreversible changes that come from copious pollution
brought about by those who seek only to build their own empire rather than working in harmony with nature
in a society whose members value Christmas shopping over taking care of each other
perhaps the world ends here

~ornery owl~

We love comments, with three caveats.
Be cool, Fool.
Don't be rude, Dude.
Don't be a prick, Slick.
That's all, Saul.
I try to get comments published as quickly as possible. I don't always reply to comments on my blog, but I do try to visit as many people as possible when I participate in blog hops and I share links where possible to Twitter, Facebook, Pinterest, and such so others can discover your work. I do read and appreciate your comments.
