Drought

once was fertile the world 
now nowhere the lushness,
becoming barrenness the womb 
the landscape full of desert flood
drought the throat of flying souls
the gigantic abdomen of the ocean full of food poison 
hemlock- the every roots of the ground 
venom-the breast of pregnant woman 
all, everywhere antiserum weeds!
