Scorched Earth
Raindrops now fall from a coal black sky
Tears of the stars that are hidden from sight;
They weep over Earth and the actions of Man
That turned sunny days into eternal nights.
Their planet was scorched; all life is gone,
The concept of peace consumed by Man's pride.
War never ceased, for hate could not rest
Until all the haters--and lovers--had died.
No wonder we aliens never once spoke.
Quarrelsome humans are no better than beasts
Fighting for resources and material gain...
Do such selfish creatures deserve sweet relief?
How fitting the humans destroyed their own home
So that they could not spread their needless pain
To the peace-filled worlds beyond their Earth.
Proof that Creator God is sane.
