Are you paying attention to how you live in this

near meltdown, this regular

never-ending heat

index?

Voracious consumption is a bellows of heat over the entire

Earth, and still, we strip the land of ore and

rare earth metals,

scarring her surface,

avoiding the truth that we

really need to face. Sacrifices are unwelcome because humans are not

yet enlightened, living selfishly and callously under our fabricated heat dome.

Thanks for reading. If you liked it, please give it a ♡ and drop a comment.
