Queen Earth
She peers happily at Gods’ little creature
Mocks the poor, caged cricket
With crooked wings
Queen Earth grins in maniacal fashion
Teasing, torturing nature in whole hearted greed
She dance with the blue mockingbird
Killing the song within
She crushes the lowly ants
She consume the belly of a snake
Wicked is her name
She inhales the world
And destroys its’ every essence
She freezes the laughing lion
With hate and disregard
She disrespects every life
Upon the earth
Even her own
