A Chance
The world today is overwhelming,
Was it this way back in the past?
Things keep changing every second,
Is it too much to want them to last?
The very essence of man is being lost,
Do we want to be electronically controlled?
With our numbers increasing like colonies of ants,
Will individuality become stories untold?
The earth was so rich, magnificence was there,
Is it possible we just couldn’t see?
It seems there’s still a chance to turn things around,
But, sadly, doesn’t seem likely to be.

If only everyone could see the world through the eyes of Neil Shaw.
Another in-your-face reality check on the way our lives are going. Keep up the good work, Neil!
