CLIMATE BEGS ON US

CLIMATE BEGS ON US!
Hearing nature groaning 
In wild fires yawning 
With storms mourn roaring 
And mother’s arms opening 
To consume self painfully panting 
Through landslides and floods washing 
When her rich children nesting 
On the porches and coaches 
Made from mother’s beauty stitches
Debating bills that owe them ravages
I wonder who hears mum’ anguishes
Empathetically and concerning 
Perhaps the unspoken offsprings 
Dwell upon heat waves wailing 
Or innocent ones being scorched 
Into ashes and those wilting 
Unless those ones thirst to death squinting 
But not us, speaking beings.
