Analysis of Earth Odyssey

We dream of blue skies and glacial clear waters
Fields lush and green for miles to be seen
A world befitting our sons and daughters
Sadly, it has been ravaged, pillaged and made carelessly unclean

The people yearn for a simple utopia
All the abundance and prosperity of cornucopia
But our leaders possess a cunning myopia
The anguish of residing in this nightmarish dystopia

Blessed with the intellect and ingenuity to thrive
So why the never ending uphill struggle?
Life is for living but instead we fight to survive
Seems there's always another bill to juggle

Love and joy are all the people desire
Not the soul wrenching agony of war
Our dream is to flourish, that’s the life we aspire
Like a phoenix from the ashes, humanity will once again soar

Upon this realm, entities work their dark art
They weave and deceive like an intricate crochet
To be human, one requires a penitent heart
These creatures are ravenous and out for prey

We scream “let us out” of this torturous maze
Breaking free won't be easy, it's so labyrinthine
Upon death, we'll pierce the veil, turning from water to wine
Only then the realisation, we're divine in design
