REACH NOT FOR THE STARS
THE TECHNOLOGY GIVEN TO YOU BY GOD’S HAND
YOU HAVE USED TO DESTROY THE WEALTH OF THIS LAND.
ALL OF THE WISDOM THAT TO YOU GOD DID GIVE
YOU HAVE USED TO DESTROY ALL GOD WANTED TO LIVE.
ALL GOD HAS GIVEN AND TO YOU DID ENTRUST
YOU HAVE DOWNTRODDEN AND TURNED INTO DUST.
THE FERTILE SOIL FOR PLANTING YOUR WHEAT
YOU SOAKED IT WITH CHEMICALS THAT YOUR CHILDREN NOW EAT.
THE SPARKLING WATER THAT FLOWED TO THE BRINK
YOU POLLUTED EACH DROP THAT YOU NOW HAVE TO DRINK.
THE LAVISH MEADOWS AND THE FRUITS OF THE TREES
HAVE TURNED TO DECAY FROM INFECTIOUS DISEASE.
BECAUSE OF YOUR GREED AND YOUR LACK OF CONCERN,
ALL THAT WILL REMAIN YOU WILL RIGHTFULLY EARN.
HOW LONG WILL MY CHILDREN STILL CHOOSE TO ANNOY
THE GIVER OF GIFTS WHOSE GIFTS THEY DESTROY?
IF YOU FAIL TO AVERT AND ALTER YOUR COURSE,
YOU WILL SHARE IN THE JUSTICE THAT GOD WILL DISPENSE.
CONSIDER THE OPTIONS THAT FOR YOU STILL REMAIN;
IF YOU REACH FOR THE STARS, WHAT WILL THEN YOUR SOUL GAIN?
“THY WILL BE DONE”
