Do you remember the day the world turned on its head?

When waterfalls flushed back

and everything went dead?

 

Do you remember life before all flowers were fake?

Before the sea of trash made us all ache?

 

Now we live in a world where colors are too expensive,

so our life is black and white

and not at all extensive.

 

The kerfuffle shuffle of

quagmires and barbed wires,

when every start must have a stop,

when we all face the chopping block.

 

When humans fled to some other home,

but it's all made of Styrofoam?

 

When the flame of our urge

lit up our purge

as we took in our vice

and breathed paradise.

 

And finally,

how we were so shocked and upset

to learn that the world ended

from our littered cigarette.
