Earth no longer	A
hymns the Creator	A
the seven days of wonder	A
the Garden is over	A
all the stories are told	B
the seven seals broken	C
all that begins	D
must have its ending	E
our striving desiring	E
our living and dying	E
for Time the bringer	A
of abundant days	F
is Time the destroyer	A
In the Iron Age	G
the Kali Yuga	E
To whom can we pray	A
at the end of an era	A
but the Lord Shiva	A
the Liberator the purifier	A
	-
Our forests are felled	H
our mountains eroded	I
the wild places	J
where the beautiful animals	K
found food and sanctuary	A
we have desolated	I
a third of our seas	L
a third of our rivers	M
we have polluted	I
and the sea creatures dying	E
Our civilization s	N
blind progress	N
in wrong courses	J
through wrong choices	J
has brought us to nightmare	A
where what seems	O
is to the dreamer	A
the collective mind	I
of the twentieth century	A
this world of wonders	M
not divine creation	C
but a big bang	E
of blind chance	P
purposeless accident	I
mother earth s children	C
their living and loving	E
their delight in being	E
not joy but chemistry	A
stimulus reflex	Q
valueless meaningless	R
while to our machines	S
we impute intelligence	T
in computers and robots	U
we store information	C
and call it knowledge	V
we seek guidance	T
by dialling numbers	M
pressing buttons	W
throwing switches	J
in place of family	A
our companions are shadows	X
cast on a screen	Y
bodiless voices fleshless faces	J
where was the Garden	C
a Disney land	I
of virtual reality	A
in place of angels	K
the human imagination	C
is peopled with foot ballers	K
film stars media men	Z
experts know all	A2
television personalities	K
animated puppets	K
with cartoon faces	K
To whom can we pray	A
for release from illusion	C
from the world cave	B2
but Time the destroyer	A
the liberator the purifier	A
	-
The curse of Midas	K
has changed at a touch	C2
a golden handshake	E
earthly paradise	K
to lifeless matter	A
where once was seed time	D2
summer and winter	A
food chain factory farming	E
monocrops for supermarkets	K
pesticides weed killers	K
birdless springs	K
endangered species	K
battery hens hormone injections	K
artificial insemination	C
implants transplants sterilization	C
surrogate births contraception	C
cloning genetic engineering abortion	C
and our days shall be short	I
in the land we have sown	E2
with the Dragon s teeth	F2
where our armies arise	K
fully armed on our killing fields	K
with land mines and missiles	K
tanks and artillery	A
gas masks and body bags	K
our air craft rain down	G2
fire and destruction	C
our space craft broadcast	I
lies and corruption	C
our elected parliaments	K
parrot their rhetoric	E
of peace and democracy	A
while the truth we deny	H2
returns in our dreams	K
of Armageddon	C
the death wish the arms trade	I
hatred and slaughter	A
profitable employment	I
of our thriving cities	K
the arms race	K
to the end of the world	I
of our postmodern	I2
post Christian	C
post human nations	K
progress to the nihil	A2
of our spent civilization	C
But cause and effect	I
just and inexorable	A2
law of the universe	K
no fix of science	K
nor amenable god	I
can save from ourselves	K
the selves we have become	J2
At the end of history	A
to whom can we pray	A
but to the destroyer	A
the liberator the purifier	A
	-
In the beginning	E
the stars sang together	A
the cosmic harmony	A
but Time imperceptible	A2
taker away	A
of all that has been	K2
all that will be	A
our heart beat your drum	J2
our dance of life	L2
your dance of death	M2
in the crematorium	J2
our high rise dreams	K
Valhalla Utopia	A
Xanadu Shangri la world revolution	C
Time has taken and soon will be gone	N2
Cambridge Princeton and M I T	A
Nalanda Athens and Alexandria	A
all for the holocaust	I
of civilization	C
To whom shall we pray	A
when our vision has faded	I
but the world destroyer	A
the liberator the purifier	A
	-
But great is the realm	O2
of the world creator	A
the world sustainer	A
from whom we come	J2
in whom we move	P2
and have our being	E
about us within us	K
the wonders of wisdom	J2
the trees and the fountains	K
the stars and the mountains	K
all the children of joy	Q2
the loved and the known	E2
the unknowable mystery	A
to whom we return	I2
through the world destroyer	A
Holy holy	A
at the end of the world	I
the purging fire	A
of the purifier the liberator	A
