Nature's Anger
A poem of climate change and despair for the future
Plants breathe
And when passes a warm breeze
know that nature is at peace.
But when comes a storm
Anger is found
In the heavy sway,
The swinging of branches,
The shaking of leaves.
The winds often soft spoken
Will scream with violence at the world
that has become so broken.
The seas will rise to let you know
They're not to be looked down upon.
For where would the green live
with all the land gone.
The Earth made of water
And plastic being all that's left
It's witness will have taken its last breath.
With an air of something
That could've been but never was
It seems like small things won't change reality,
But for the hope it does.
Chemicals form the good, the bad
Through formulas of greed
And a prevailing love of policy
That creates death on mass.
Recreating once extinct seeds
To repair done damage
Through the same which caused
The previous disaster's to succeed in parish.
Forgetting life is not just present
That what we are and represent
Could be a future so cool, so unique,
Only to be ruined by disbelief
Daily joy overtaking future peace.
Working daily
Waiting for breath to cease
And everything so dismal.
Life ahead is push and pull
What does it mean to live,
What does it mean to survive?
Fire's made for lands
Which are nothing but superficial
To kill its inhabitants
Then give it back for toll
Territory, Resources and self satisfaction
Were things of the past,
But in present they still hunger
And never will they be full.
Plants breathe
And when passes a warm breeze
know that nature is at peace.
But now they storm
And their anger is found
In the heavy sway,
The swinging of branches,
The shaking of leaves.
