The
Rebirth of Mother Earth
Crimson the sky
The sea rages with her anger
Left scars embedded in arms
That held many babies
Mommy got lost …..tossed
Moved in circular motion
Man to man
Fist to fist
She held her own
She sits…….awaits her fate
Trembling like those papers
Those notices ..eviction
Addiction
Even her shadow hides
She has died many times before
Thrown on hardwood floors
Get up, bitch , I hate you
Even in sex
The effects unbearable
Nothing to live for
Tears leave trails permanent
Eyes have darkened
Heart beat out of sync
Like her walk, her talk
Only mumbles or whispers
In the closet
Her safe haven from the sun
She has turned night
Nocturnal
She was mother earth
Moved with the wind
Created a universe of men
Women, strong , they failed her
Pushed weapons of mass destruction
Upon her land, now barren
Nuked, dried
Crimson the sky
Mother earth has died
But she will resurrect
Like the prophets have spoken
New heaven, new earth
Regenerated
She live again
Breathing with the sun
Waters blessed by Angels
Lands full of fruit
Mountains sculptured to perfection
She smiles
And Love dwells within her
After all of this time
She finally can rest
Enjoy, she off her beauty
Be proud
For she has came a mighty long way
Mother earth
