The Rage of Mother Earth

The Rage of Mother Earth (Warning those who destroy HER) You, unfeeling creatures Who call yourselves Human, You, fleeting bubbles of reason, Accidental parasites of time, You, filthy microbes of cancer, Ephemera of invincible eternity, You, who try to fill your vanity With abominable crimes, You, insensible butchers of animals, Notorious destroyers of pastures, You, contaminators of oceans, Deleterious polluters of rivers, You, menacing beings of harmony, Transgressors of universal laws, You, who deliberately have put Me Through the tormenting agony of dying By strewing your treacherous dark web Of your unworthy ambitions, all over my face Shadowing my generous fertility And rendering me sterile, Behold! For the time will come for you To feel my wrath and my fury Boiling lava over you To flow every day, Kneel, you tiny mortal beings In front of the immortal cosmos For the shiny heavy sword Of universal justice, Punisher of transgressions Guardian of the eternal laws, Over your thoughtless heads to fall With vengeance and rage Decapitating the most of you And those who would survive Will feel the torturing pain In their hearts For thousands of years! © Demetrios Trifiatis
