Her presence
14 May 2021This planet
This little blue spec is the soul of our life’s
Every war
Culture
Idea
Is made on this tiny blue spec in the infinite universe
When was the last time you admired the clouds?
Felt the grass between your toes? Not those plastic sole shoes you wear
Skin to earth.
What it used to be
Relax your jaw
Let your belly hang out
Breathe in her air like it’s the last breath you’ll ever take
Feel her presence
Feel her pain
Her sky starts to cry as you cut down her trees
Washing what was once your trash into her creeks
Into her rivers
Into her ocean
feed the fish, right?
That’s what you laughed as you through your cup out the window
Feed your mind dude
80% of oxygen in our entire atmosphere comes from that ocean
She provides that water you drink, that food you eat, that crisp air you take advantage of every single day
Yet there are clouds of carbon smog coming from factories like a demon’s breath
Feel her presence
Feel her pain
