Gold's Deadly Desert Poem by O Anna Niemus

Gold's Deadly Desert

Rating: ★5.0


Around the Emerald City was
the deadly desert.
And around gold
whose sire
is comfort desire...
are the cyanide deserts
of poisoned streams,
poisoned air,
poisoned fish and turtles
and birds
from the mining of mountains
