Powered by the proceeds of a tank of gasoline
as we turn its ordered molecules to air
Grabbing what we can from this,
to run our grey machines
Turns out it was poison all the time

There are other ways to stay alive
Streams and forests know them
Ways to capture order 
as it flows from the Sun

We know the ways
We know our brains
Biosphere can feel the pain
We need a breathing change right now
The warming has begun
