We know how to avoid the death, but will we? kenne
by Ethel Mortenson Davis
“Who were these people?”
“They were people
who overpopulated their planet,
depleting all its natural elements.”
“They were at continuous war
with each other,
never satisfied with their treaties.”
“Eventually they lost their atmosphere.”
“Then nothing stayed on the planet.
Everything blew off.”
“Yes, in just a few thousand years
their life and their planet died.”
“They called themselves Earth, I think.
Earth.”
Becoming is Superior to Being 
Yes.
Excerpt from The Hollow Men by T.S.Eliot:
This is the way the world ends
Not with a bang but a whimper.
