A.D. 2067
WHEN FLOWERS
no longer bloom
and the sky
is aways red
and to drink
the water
from
the running stream
is almost
certain death
And when all about you
stillness rules
and not a sound is heard
Then
And only then
will you know
that it was all
a mistake
and that man
in his Eagerness
for progress
went
just
a little bit
too far
