Global Warning

The pyramids were a warning,
A dire warning that none of us listened to,
That of a society,
A civilized society,
That will consume itself,
It was true of Egypt,
Rome and Great Britain,
Pax, Pax, Pax,
And now is true of the United States,
My attitude unshaken,
As I ponder the world the way I’d like it to be,
Rather than the way it is,
Though I must smile,
As prescient knowledge is given to few,
Who heed the warnings.
