Quake

Mother Earth shivers violently, quakes; Her fracked core splits apart and She weeps for her children.

Yes, I hate it that it's being destroyed by our greed. Sometimes I with the Industrial Revolution had never happened. I think there are other ways to do things without destruction and people should try to imagine the consequences of what they're planning to create and do beforehand. Thanks so much, Mike.
