A New Eden Poem by ivor or ivor.e hogg

i kind of hope this was written to americans spcifically, then it would be perfectly accurate and correct as it should be, otherside a great write and definately and certainly credible nonetheless

Makes me think of the California poet Robinson Jeffers, who also believed that mankind was not worthy of the planet; he called it 'Inhumanism.' Also I think a book called 'The World without Us' imagined what Planet Earth would be like without humans. I think the worst part is that it did not have to be this way. As to whether we can stop the bleeding, I guess time will tell. Very powerful poem.

I'm afraid this is way too true. We are a hungry greedy bunch who want it all and in the process make so many mistakes. Very nicely written - a '10! ' Best Wishes, Marilyn

Brilliant write Ivor! How true! ! I agree with the message here and Marilyn's comment! Best wishes! *10*! ! Friend Thad

Ammmmmazing poem indeed! .......10+

It is a poem of science, extremely abstract.The idea of return of the current nature, devastated, to the nature of Eden is brilliant.Yes, indeed, we need a new Eden....10+++++

Sir, As usual you impress with perfect rhyme, rhythm and reason. For a drowning man catching on a straw You have let the mankind know its flaw, CP

Is this a prediction, I wonder. This piece has made me think. Good.

Good writing with an important message. I have dealt with the same subject in a more mataphoricaly way in my poem 'The Northbound Ship'

perfect meter, fine ryhtm and an indelible message
