Life Lost... Poem by Steven Hoon

We hear her screams,
And yet we just sit still.
She cries out to us,
And we just ignore her...
Our mother is dying,
And we are holding the knife...
She's givin' us so much,
And we show no graditude...

The climate is changing...
The levees are breaking...
And if I'm not mistaking...
It's us she's forsaking...

Her pain is repressed,
And undressed...
Being raped by our eyes...
And ov course our mother is in pain,
Our mother is hurt...
Our mother is earth...
