The Cursed Earth

We stare upwards, questioning the stars
There are no answers, to all the questions
With so many throats choked with words
No words of hope can escape the lips
The walls around us were built to stand
Humans efforts were beyond brilliant
But that didn't make them impenetrable
Our disasters are all self invited,
Every human grieves this plague
This flesh has been cursed
We're unwilling to surrender
As disasters strike this Earth
A third of water made toxic
A third of the populace dies
We've entered Armageddon
There's no escape for our species
Despite our efforts, we're done
