Humans are destroying the Earth
we know what this Earth must be worth.

So why are we not letting the New York bumble buzzing bees fly to their destination?
With infinite constellations.

Are we going to dismantle this planet so much there is nothing left to do?
When we are done are people going to discover somewhere new?

New York crowds nature so much, the drivers of the cars don’t understand.
People really needs a new plan.

People of New York are like puppets walking to work.
All of them look like they have the monotonous job of a clerk.

Nature can't do this on their own
What if you sat on the natures throne.
