the sea is rising
and God is angry
the sky is polluted
and God is choking us
oceans are flooding
and God is coming
commuting life and committing glory
this planet is invoking danger
God is pointing to catastrophe
species are rapidly descending
God is destroying a lot of everything
earth's evolution is warping
and God is crying mercury
this revolutionary planet
requires a metamorphic happening
quick silver measuring us anatomically
God is worshiping an atomic universe
this entire world is swiftly changing
divinity bows down to mnenomic Mother Earth
God is thinking I told you so
those fattest cultures
obesely thinking only of themselves
such an excruciatingly greedy place
God is going to thin everyone down
reframe this current fat cat social structure
God reminds us to be refreshingly compassionate
as desperation wears its scarred and violent face
God is asking us to be empathetic
this world is full of so many hateful people
God wants undivided love and true care
overtly rich men and women including King Midas
being covertly obtrusive and obsessive
existing as that heartless greedy kind
God has imprisoned them in their soulless lair
while the human race flounders deaf and blind
God is saying we had better look again
stare hard into every magic mirror
reimagine who is speaking and who is truly there
this world is full of rape and war and fear
yet God contends we are all equal and should be kind
Mother Earth insists we need to share
the world we most easily see is black and white
and God demands we must have clear vision
envision spectral colour both day and night
this voracious world is insatiably thirsty for oil and gas
irrationally hunting for crowns of gold and mounds of diamonds
God is pushing us to be happy
revoke all behaviour that is crass
God happily feeds us apples and oranges
relational nutrition plus a few smoked almonds
Mother Earth's precious creatures are going extinct
God is watching while we press and pluck ourselves
stressed people are often fools and fail to clearly think
so rampant panic creates environments of empty shelves
deserts are growing while the seas are dying
God is saying the human race could disappear
balance has been contravened as we bumble trying
devouring ignorance we walk around sighing
this planet is coming to terms with mega-death
God is reminding us everything is possible
including constructive bounty and uninterrupted crystal meth
the heart and soul of humankind has been corrupted
God twists wishing we would meditate upon salvation
crave redemption on our spiritual journey
our inherited souls marked with God's almighty invitation
the meritorious world is burning and drowning
we're burdened with this untold blunder
we're owning this terminal climate change
and God is sending us more thunder and lightning
this world is razed asunder by crazed immoral war
God contends we would be better off eating manna
intending nothing less and nothing more
earth is finding it hard to reconcile the human race
God is watching us turn ourselves inside out
here we are wearing such a pathetic covid face
our unsympathetic world is tearing us to pieces
extended God still celebrates
that revolutionary inventive alpha bang
not intending a universal blackhole tomb
while the distended Holy Ghost prays divinity increases
a wondrous universal womb is cosmically incubating
thus supreme God is aptly ovulating
