Where Do We Go From Here?

Why won’t the earth revolt for itself?
When will we humans stop being human?
What happens when there’s nothing left here?
Where hides the place they call Nirvana?
Who is the Moses that will lead us?

Plenty things must not be talked about,
Like the day the world is said to end
Or the reason for bombs and Sudan.
Because nothing can ever be right.
There’ll be nowhere to go from what’s left.
