Nature's tantrum fit.

Nature's tantrum fit.

Can you see nature?
Can you see it continually throwing tantrum fits?
Can you see how nature quakes,
And shakes the earth in violent indignation?
Can you see the cyclones and tornadoes and tsunamis,
Run across the earth at break neck speed,
Ripping and leaving a massive destruction in its wake?
Can you see, Can you see, Can you see?
Vast skies shower the earth in copious diarrhea,
Flood the lands and drown the tallest man,
Yet a famine rocks parts and pockets of the same earth,
As parched and thirsty grounds die to quench their thirst,
Dormant volcanoes erupt in apparent protest,
Spewing and puking enough to paralyze the skies,
Unpleasant surprises cook up in the bowels of the earth,
Question for you nature!
What do you protest?
What is it which angers you so?
Are you just a pawn in God's divine hands,
Fulfilling the inescapable Biblical prophecies?
Are these birth pangs for something greater yet to come?
Where have we gone so wrong?
Humanity is helpless and hapless,
In the enormity of your strength.
