Assuming there’s a better way to live
Allowing Earth to flourish and survive,
We need to take a path that’s positive,
The wisest that clear thinking can contrive.
Outmoded ideologies must die,
The failed experiments of duller days,
And since there’s time for only one last try,
Enlightenment must sweep away our haze.
If we can find the way to wake in time
And change the course of errant history,
Inspired by a wiser paradigm,
We’ll learn at last what we are meant to be:
Exemplars that the Cosmos can evolve
To crack the code our forebears could not solve.
