Some thoughts on “free energy”:
What would happen to planet Earth
if Earthians discovered the concept of
“free energy”?

Much is being said on the topic
as non-renewable resources dwindle
and pollution increases.
We are entering the age
of “permanent resource wars”
for control of remaining resources.

What would our “leaders” do
with free energy?
Would they give it freely
to every human on the planet?
Would they facilitate the sharing
of such a priceless resource?

Or would the opposite happen:
would there be increased corruption,
more greed and destruction
as the need to conserve and care
seems no longer valid?

In a world whose modus operandi
is simply raw greed
how could “free energy”be a boon?
It would be the ultimate disaster
as happened with fossil fuels
when it was believed the supply
would be endless.

In the days when oil flowed from the ground
to be had for the taking –
who worried about environmental pollution?

Only mad prophets and idiots.

The System knew better
and the people as always
knew whom to trust.

You're only allowed to breath freely so you can freely pay your taxes...James

free energy? possibly, but someone would find a way to charge for delivery and then tax it prohibitively...extra points for the use of the word 'earthian'
