no longer the question
Not many years from now
All of us will be gone
Our last breath released
Into the atmosphere
The same air we all share
That everyone who ever lived took in
Filled with their hopes and dreams
Now dust blowing in the wind
The smoke from burning fossil fuels
That is the legacy of our time
Compounded by all the other impacts
Dumped into the environment
With so much left unsaid
To state the obvious
What future generations will inherit
No longer the question
It is hard to make the fundamental change
That the situation demands
Even as the climate disaster accelerates
Wreaking havoc across every ecosystem
But the established order may not last
Liable to collapse as events cascade
Until the entire system breaks down
Throwing everything into question
