Encroachment

civilization is a good thing, however the wilderness, much of it is being decimated by mankind's activities

Above metropolitan
Foggy lights
And dripping roofs

The sad rain and
Crying moon
Of this city cloaked 

Blue lights, 
Night lights 
White specks
In heaven high
Vaguely shining through

Abandoned race of human brood
Moon now slowly moves 
Bathing remote,
Lonely wild land

Not far from this city’s
Nestled populace
Teeming thousands peoples
In bubbled spheres 
Wrapped 
Trapped

The mountains near
Are not far 
Where snow and waterfall are 
In herb scented air 

Animals roam, 
Rocks sit
Trees dance
Lichen lays 
Unlittered there

Before tomorrow comes
I pray
Drink deeply 
With your eyes 
Its fading image

Drink before 
Tomorrow comes

Stainless steel science
Circuits Silicon Integrate
Carbon copy consciousness 
Ever grow
To finish what’s left
