Earthlets
I wouldn't mind
if the earth was covered in a topsoil of water,
if we humans were drowned in plastic waste and the bones of those they've monopolised upon floated about them
but I'd mind for her,
I couldn't bear that for her.
I sacrifice my own joy for her,
I unravel my soul and make it palatable for her,
don't break this planet while her feet are upon it.

Every mother's dream, Poppy; that of a brighter future and cleaner world for our children and grandchildren. The heart was in this one.
