A Plight to Save the World
Imagine.
 The blood in my veins
 Pulsing. Surging
 With every heartbeat
 Prick my fingers
 And watch it drain
 Upward to the skies
 Until it rains
 And hear the cries
 The dry earth
 Starving for humanity
 Opens its pores and drinks my blood.
 Draining me till I am no more
 So when you break the skin of the earth
 And get deep into it’s flesh
 You’ll see
 The blood from my veins
 Pulsing. Surging.
 With every gasp our mother takes
 My blood.
 Red. Glowing.
 Feeding you
 Her children
 Milking her of life
 While entities like me
 Breathe the vivacity back into her
 Slowly.
 Too slowly
 For you, her children
 Feed on your mother
 Satiating yourselves
 And starving her.
 Until our efforts are futile
 And we all end
 Taking our mother down with us.
 Death for all
