We Gave Her The Flu

This is the story
of not so happy times.
In all of our glory,
sometimes we're blind.

It's in our genes,
to want what we don't need.
Would that change
if fate intervenes?

A little planet,
on the verge of death.
Yet only a few can be bothered to help,
only a few would give a breath.

People deny,
While the world decays,
Yet it makes them cry
To think about last days.

We love our earth,
This fact is true,
But she needs our help.
We gave her the flu.
