Testament to Progress

How long have we been aliens on our own planet?
What century will fate decide our Heathen's demise?
Traitors to each other and a land that gave us life.
Selfishness of Man bred from seven deadly sins.

Brother you are one with the dust.
Sister when did you lose touch?
Crying alarm - The Neanderthal Man
who foresaw a future - a concrete wasteland.

We've been typecasting
dogs of war to glorify our 'reign'.
Outside reason understanding is lost.

We build fires from foundations
that fulfill our lungs.
Rising higher over clouding horizons.
We stake claim and take names
with a penchant for pestilence,
it is testament to progress.

Carved out a life of servitude
to feed the demand.
Hand on the pulse, beat quickening
to flee sinking sand.
Dreams of McCandless, the erudite wanderer;
Who tasted Wild beauty in pure asthetic lust.
