The Earth Has Questions
I think the world wants answers from us this time.
It wants to know why we dig holes and hit old wounds?
Why we send hateful threats to its door step?
I talked to the earth...we chatted and discussed our lives.
I was an insider looking out and he an outsider looking in.
We came up with few answers.
Why do they hurt me, when I give them shelter?
I defended us wholeheartedly
While trying to swallow a thick piece of guilt
He could see that it was hard for me
He grew angry and so did I
Fighting for a world with little remorse
Murdering the hand that feeds our souls
We wonder why...
When our actions are our answers
Simultaneously we questioned
Because they are/we are human
It does not excuse whats we do
We know right from wrong
Treat the earth the way we want to be treated
