She Will Counterstrike
Woeful mother waits in eroding caves
To throw our sullied fates into graves
Mere humanity starts to slowly shave
Pouring down sorrowful, abhorred tears
Ignoring those increased kindled fears
Dwindling this archaic, split atmosphere
Smoldering air emits from her frail lungs
Choking foolish elders and their young
Modern day tension lacerated and stung
Causing chaos when they quietly sung
Praises of inventions with slurred tongues
Eclipsed machines misguided and sprung
For death's breath to escape human lungs
As finished people enflame her woods
Executioner equips her baneful hood
We withstood climates while we could
Despite diminishing lakes and woods
Without direction's change, like we should
She'll refuse to diffuse her placed hood
When bruising nations foresee no good
While flirting and squirming with science
Alliances fade, motioning for defiance
Turning tapered trees to stained paper
Repeat deceitfulness in air and vapor
Draining Earth, void of her compliance
Straining disdain and essential reliance
Due to what sedated Earth must heave
Desecrated reality reaches final eve
Since we decided to divide and leave
Retain no mercy or subsided reprieve
Capriciously cleaving closer bereave
She'll return inflictions without grieve
Her satisfaction to relieve and receive
Mindless souls showing feeble naivety
No mankind to perceive and believe
Her solace achieved as fate is weaved

her skirt touching the ground,
her eyes happy and round,
her hair flowing and down.

Tree Upon the Hill
Oh, lonely tree upon the hill
What deeds must thou have done
To reap such lonely outpost?
Bad karma or good,
Stalwart

There are many dying sounds,
still heard today,
and what those screams are,
the world in dismay.
Scientist grow more knowledge,
