It is the era of Man...the tides of time have swept much life from this earth, yet, mankind plows onward, reigning in the 21st Century as the dominant species, undisputed as far as the mind can wander.
It is at great expense of both earth and animal alike, that we should emerge with such vigor, spawn from such a humble past. But, humble, we are not...At no time in imaginable history has one ecological phenomenon been so destructive, to itself, and to all it encounters.
The legacy of the Homosapien is unfolding into nothing short of a catastrophic mishap. What will be the result of a mere hand full of decades of blatant disregard and abuse of our natural resources? Few have thought to venture into this realm, and a terrible, nightmarish land it is...
Conceivable that the mere thought of the future wasteland that we so indifferently so shamefully develop, may in itself be enough to drive a mortal man insane with grief. Thus, most choose to stand idle, in a time when no such liberty can be afforded...A moment in the infinite ocean of space & time when the most influential being to perhaps ever have known this Galaxy, has the capacity to alter the path of history. Indeed, already has...
Mankind is hardened. A stone fixture on the face of the planet, monumental in stature...flawed in design. With all the vigor of a soldier marching to a beat we have gone into battle without careful consideration of those vital elements of engagement. With pride as solid as rock we hold high our accomplishments, with little regard for the ultimate consequences.
Consequences. For every action, an equal & opposite reaction. "You shouldn't throw stones if you live in a glass house." The effects of the tiny cracks we have made in Earth's outer wall, it's perimeter defenses, if gone unmended, will amount to a weak-spot. If history bares any meaning...if it taught us ALL anything...Even invincible walls can & will crumble, when fallen by men.
With unchecked expansion of Empire, with ill-fated policies near & present, the time is, and can only be now, that the hearts of all women & men beat as one...
