Noxious intent brews
rampant callous endeavors
toxic news flare up
flames of greed engulf mankind
the world burns, inhales vile ash.

Endangering Earth…
In response to Brenda’s wordle #418.
Write a prose or a poem using some or all of the words given.
Global warming, rising ocean levels, climate change, water crisis, forest fires are terms that have become common parlance today. What was earlier ignorance is now over powered by man’s greed, in plundering nature’s resources for his benefit. The adverse impact of this reckless behavior is escalating to be a very alarming situation. If man continues to ravage earth’s reserves at this rate, life on this planet is definitely numbered. The only solution lies in ending our cruelty to nature, help her reinstate her lost glory and leave behind a planet worthy of living for our children.
Silent Death!
In response to Susi’s weekly haiku challenge #26.
Narcissist man loots
deaf to earth’s heartrending cries
silent death she dies!
Anticipation
Isn’t it an irony of life,
avarice and greed
steers some lives,
to amass, accumulate and hoard,
money, money and more money,
in anticipation,
that it will ensure a ticket,
for a lavish life for generations to come,
only to realize
in a single moment,
it is nothing but scrap of paper!
In response to the daily prompt : Anticipation
