MOTHER EARTH

 

Mother Earth gave birth to us

With sweat and tears she nurtured us with love

Day and night she held us to her bosom

Protected us against the thunders and hurricanes

 

She let us explore the world

She filled the rivers and seas for us

Forests of trees were spread all over the planet

mountains of animals hobbled into our lives

 

We built cities of iron and steel to protect ourselves

Sailed over the seven seas to conquer more countries

Blood, lust and wars became our soul mates

Milk and honey turned sour in our mouths

 

Slowly the ocean tears started to flow out of Mother Earth's eyes

She called us back

We turned our ears deaf

Again and again Mother Earth's voice rang like a necklace call

 

We started playing with fire-dolls

Trees fell helpless into the fire-fingers

We laughed and raptor danced in our concrete palaces

We destroyed our earth gifts with our anthrax-breath

 

Did we splatter and spew one too many time on Mother Earth

Can we unbreak her heart

Will Mother Earth give us a happy ending after all our broken promises

or are we entering a doom-galaxy
