The small girl walked out of her house, her face downcast and sad.552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJT26NYNOOo
Far away from her, situated  on another part of my mass, a tiny child, his body hideously thin, cried out for food as he starved.552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9j4jNuhK5M
And on yet another part of my being, men fell by the hundreds, impaled by small pieces of lead. I suddenly shook with horror and began to weep, my grief sending rain down in torrents.552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaqZd4h6APA
Nothing had stopped, nothing had changed since the day my children came into existence.552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWUvTlVoSMY
My children still hated each other, still killed each other, I was disregarded and abused,.552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEiPLtQ6ve6
The lesser creatures that inhabited me, did not know me, they were ignorant, and killed each other also in a deadly cycle, but they differed from the humans.552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrXRlUhTIgx
Humans understand death, but killed and inflicted pain without cause, animals possessed  no understanding, only instincts.552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPyJ4q28UXl
And I possessed the grief laden task of witnessing the misery and depravity  unfolding inside my own body.552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTRbSDQXzJe
Times of actual joy were rare, but here and there I would catch a glimpse of a celebration, or a happy family, and my body would shudder, wishing for more love.552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Tj7sxcQBh

The humans' learned men spoke true. when they said my heart was physically fiery and unbearably hot, but the only thing I could feel from the depths of my fiery core 552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPgFa5mqomg
were loneliness and  sadness.552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZMNiEIge5d
I am Mother Earth, and I am dying.  552Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGjJ8DBHSL1
