MOTHER EARTH SPEAKS
Long ago
Beautiful and pure
Carefully created to sustain and endure
Every breath was fresh and clean
The most amazing thing ever seen
Animals were strong and wild
Only the fittest survived
Oceans, mountains, and Rain Forests thrived
One day a creäture appeared
On two limbs it walked
With rocks, arrows, and guns
The animals they stalked
The creatures evolved and so did their tools
Invented machinery to make profit
The pride of the two-legged fool
These creatures built cities
With buildings high
Each day blowing emissions into
Mother Earth’s eye
Drilling holes in her core
Spilling oil in her ocean
Not realizing it set disaster in motion
Now,
Mother Earth’s foundation is shifting
Her ocean a rage
The two legs are frantic
Those buildings their cage
The bodies of their dead float by
Ears hear nothing but the sound of cries
Scientists explain
Christians pray
The dead are dead no matter what they say
Quit polluting her air and the ocean so deep
Because what we are seeing…
Is Mother Earth when she speaks!

Please quit killing our ‘Mother’!!!!
WHEREVER GOVERNMENT MEET…
Wherever government meets…
Like the wind their lies endlessly blow
Mankind fell from my pedestal long ago
Rapist, murderers, liars and cheats
Crooked politicians wherever government meets
Families are riddled with hunger, struggle and strife.
A father loses his job, then takes his own life
That mother?
She tried to raise those three girls but it was no use
She could not see, they were being molested blinded by her drug abuse
Now, three more children are condemned to the streets
Yet, they are not discussed wherever government meets
For children, hunger, and society lost
Are never the topics of the day
War, control, and money are all their lips spray
It’s always their business what God you serve what you believe
It’s their job to dictate, it’s our job to concede
There are logical answers to the world’s suffering, bureaucracy, and red tape
But without confusion our wallets they could not rape
I say we stand up, don’t accept defeat
Then, one by one cast them out wherever voters’ meet

STEPS…
STEPS…
Forgive you
Where would I start?
The hunger for justice has filled my heart
Since I was young you’ve haunted my dreams
You are still victimizing me –
Or so it seems
I pray and scream into the night
If only someone could make it right
But what you have done cannot be erased
The innocence you stole can never be replaced
Understand you –
There is no excuse!
I won’t accept annalistic theories for your abuse
I want you judged for your perverted desire
Tormented by the same in HELL”S FIRE!
Pity you –
Where was mine?
The night you raped me
You filthy swine
So –
Forgiveness, understanding, and pity you’ll never get from me
One day –
Your face I will no longer see…
