Imagine a world without buildings
A world where the grass is always green
A world where we don’t have to hide
Don’t feel the need to die
A world that isn’t about death
But life.
Imagine a world without buildings
A world without institutions
Without power
A world that isn’t about war
But peace.
A parallel universe we will never reach
Because extinction looms, doomed
to drown in our man-made creation
of buildings.
By Liv.
(I wrote this sat in a cafe, sat in a seat by a floor to ceiling window staring out at the bright sunny day, with clear blue skies. Despite the pleasantness of the day, all I could think about was what a shame it was I couldn’t see the beauty of the world itself, because my view was so blocked by huge, grey, ugly buildings. So, my inspiration for humanities penchant of ruining the natural world inspired this poem)
