Scream

Meandering fluidity

barricades erected

changing course,

altering fate.

Treasures of the womb

dug out with greed

and not need

porous Earth.

Green canopy pruned

to build shelters.

bare and brown

stands the planet

Creating clones

the genetic seeds destroyed.

mighty Ganges sullied

land reclamations

Anger bursts from my seams

 molten lava spews

Tsunamis roll out from my heart.

When I grind my teeth and

clench my jaws, the crust shakes

tumbles and quakes.

Mercury soars

 there is no respite

famine and helplessness reigns

Mother Earth scream at her little children.

Stop this destruction!

we have only one Earth to live on.
