The candle of hope dares not flicker, as the scales of fate weigh us, weigh upon us.

We know what we are. For if a planet could grow a tumour,

Then a most malignant tumour are we. Humans.

We grow across Earth’s surface and give unto it our poisons.

Indeed a cancer are we.

Yet our allotted time is not over. We can still turn back the clock.

A flicker in the darkness, let hope begin anew.
