Man and Earth
Unscathed is my flesh
Poisoned is yours
My arms are mighty
Yours are stumps
Rich is the coursing blood
Putrid the river
I touched your pain in the acid rain
I feel your sorrow in your consuming quakes
I know your anger in the molten lava
And I have seen your joy in the rising sun.
The saying is all wrong:
It is not together we stand and divided we fall
It is together we stood and together we have fallen.
Dearest Earth,
Forgive us.
