Hazy pale of blue:

Looming on the horizon,

Staring back through polluted eyes,

Red with greed's prosperity,

How many dammed rivers,

Will stop flowing,

Poisoning our future,

To electrify our lives,

Driven into oblivion,

In steel chariots,

Devouring our savior,

Called atmosphere,

Mass suicide,

Performed with righteous apathy,

Such well intended ignorance,

So many over-inflated egos,

Casting questions to the winds,

Foolishly contrived answers,

Burst in meaningless skies,

In space holding no life.

(tears fall down my cheeks) Oh Robert, this is so so sad, my heart goes out to all of nature and humanity tormented by this intoxication. (sigh) I pray many can learn from these mistakes we've made and we can work together to make the future one of hope and peace! (sigh) Such sorrow and unrest fills these words, sweet brother, my heart goes out to all the world! (big hugggsssss) We all love you, sweet friend! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet brother, thank you for sharing!

May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton
