    Heal the Mother

    I’m walking down the street
    Balled up candy wrapper in my hand
    Thrown towards the corner garbage can
    Missed and added to the rest of the decay
    Called liter that’s across the land.

    When will people realize
    We’re destroying “the mother”
    We’ve polluted her tears and body
    We continue to cut her hair that provide us with
    The air one cannot live without

    Using her bodily parts to manipulate her
    Shape her to our liking
    We’ve disconnected ourselves from her
    We’re killing her slowly
    But the mother does and will get her revenge
    For the weather is her weapon
    Reminding us who’s in control
    So let’s change the world

    Reconnect to our mother
    And try to restore
    Whatever majesty our mother still possesses.

    Your on my team, you'll love some of my work, this poem Heal the Mother , is added to my favorites, nice, :)

    Poetry is not an expression of the party line. It's that time of night, lying in bed, thinking what you really think, making the private world public, that's what the poet does.

    Allen Ginsberg (1926-1997) U.S. poet.
