Our Mother

We are killing her slowly
raping her as she dies
murderers with smiles
stealing life and beauty
beneath once perfect skies

Some blind fools remain happy
arrogant stupid folk
as long as they can taste
fruits of disgusting waste
mills continue to smoke

Obvious decimation
height of hypocrisy
cars and boats and planes
powered by our planet
poisoning land and sea

I beg "do not feel helpless"
act from within your hearts
voice of common man
raised strong and proud and true
this is where healing starts

I cry for my involvement
my stupid shameful acts
please forgive this fool
a lifetime of closed eyes
'tis time to make new pacts

Out there is inspiration
perfect majestic truth
life as it was meant
flowers in the desert
rare gifts She shares with you

No other so important
vile greed must dissipate
focus must be clear
Mother screams for help now
no longer can we wait
​

What have we done
What have we done

We are killing her slowly. I just hope we all can see that and do our small part to help her heal and become whole again.

I've come to believe, Karen, it is obligatory for those of us who understand the seriousness of the situation to lend our voices for this cause in order to shine a light on the tragic circumstances of our continued lifestyles. This is a MUST DO for us to save Mother Earth for future generations. Thank you for lending your voice !

Gracias, Merci, Mahalo
Bill
