Roy Harper – Burn The World

Posted on by Opher

Humans are insane.

Out of selfishness and greed they are prepared to literally burn the world.

We have one world – our water world. It has taken billions of years of evolution to create this interwoven web of life. We are busy disassembling it for profit. Not only that but many of us find great glee in this wanton destruction.

Then we have the moronic brainwashed evangelists who believe that the planet, and all living things, were given to us to use how we like. They even welcome this destruction because they believe it brings us closer to ‘the end of days’. They are truly insane.

Nobody ever expresses it better than Roy.

How I miss those concerts, those talks, those exchanges. A breath of sanity amid this madness!

Poetry – There’s Enough

There’s Enough

There’s enough

For me and you

To share

If we are fair.

There’s no need

To grab too much –

To snare

More than our share

For if we truly care

And help our fellow men

And nature too

They’ll be more than enough

For me and you.

There’s Enough

I yearn for fairness and equality, an end to arrogance and selfishness.

I crave a better world where a tiny minority are not exploiting everyone to cream off more than they can ever be worth.

I want a world built on sanity where nature is protected, where everything is not up for grabs and run for profit.

I want a happy world.

There’s enough for us all and nature if we only learn to do it better.

There’s nowhere near enough if we continue to destroy it all with impunity. We will destroy ourselves.

You and Me can Do It!!!

They used to rid themselves of nuclear waste

By dumping it at sea.

They’d still be doing it now

If not for you and me.

Sadly they’re still chopping down

The forests with impunity,

And strip mining in the wilderness

Where the wild-life used to be.

They are spraying all the crops

And killing pest and bee.

Soon they’ll be nothing left

Of elephant or chimpanzee.

We’ll be living in a concrete desert

Without a single tree;

Billion upon billion of us

Swamping nature by degree.

It’s time they reigned in the greed

I’m sure you’ll all agree.

SO LET’S PUT A STOP TO IT!!


BECAUSE IT’S SURE KILLING ME!!

You and Me can Do It!!!

Nothing makes me more frustrated and angry than the rapid destruction of the wilderness and slaughter of nature.

In my own lifetime I have witnessed the rapid degradation of our environment. The world population has doubled and we are swamping nature. The extinction rate has gone through the roof and even creatures that were common in my youth are now threatened.

We are a disaster.

Yet we should not be. It is our stupidity and greed, our national pride and cruel, violent natures that is causing the problem.

If the G7 put their mind to it they could solve all the problems.

  • Reduce the population
  • Global laws on pollution
  • Global laws and enforcement on poaching
  • 50% of the planet for wilderness and nature – 50% for humans
  • Stop the greedy practices that are strip mining, fracking, cutting down trees and slaughtering wild life.
  • Stop the wars
  • Bring in contraception
  • Create greater equality
  • Sort pensions, welfare and sickness benefit

Problem solved.
