its said earth was Gods gift to us

Like our bodies

its the only way our souls can live

 

the sky smells of wonder, the land pours sacrifices decimating droughts.

mankind’s hurdles have made it difficult to experience places our eyes have never seen before

 

living is never soul-less

its never pure

despite our birthed promises

we claim lands already gifted to us

like rugs left in hallways

our eyes should ache from the smoke scents of our burning earth
