A caterpillar swarm
has eaten all the green
the plague of the Earth
desolation as far as can be seen
there's no universal court to intervene.

There's no limit for this beast
epidemics only slow down its feast
from the bottom of the seas
to the top of the trees
its might is coming to squeeze.

Not every seventh year
but daily on this sphere
it feels like the end is near.

By the crawler jaws
all forests have been chewed
voracious to farm
when its billions of offsprings cry for food
no natural menace preying on its brood.

There's no limit for this beast
epidemics only slow down its feast
from the bottom of the seas
to the top of the trees
its might is coming to squeeze.

A mineral-eating pest
shoves out all the rest
a cuckoo in a pristine nest.

Settlements, road construction
cultivation, intoxicant production
logging, drilling and mining
a waste cloud without a silver lining.
Holocene extinction, in the twinkling of an eye
the work of million years is going to die
from moas to coral reefs and bees
for lithium, cobalt and manganese.

There's no limit for this beast
epidemics only slow down its feast
from the bottom of the seas
to the top of the trees
its might is coming to squeeze.

The paradise with lagoons
is now desert dunes
next target is to mine the moon.
