All Inclusive Earth Is Calling You
Wake up. It’s time for a better day
Let Earth beg you, beseech you, open your eyes
The burning world, turning, needs you to rise
Enough about orange man, enough about Mueller,
Your blessed, blue planet flashes another color
The sixth extinction sprawls, like creeping mildew
Lose trees, bees, and manatees, then we all lose, too
Assemble and ascend, do not waste a minute
Do not wait for leaders, clueless, or complicit
A bleak, toxic future seeps up like tar sands
But climate justice pours power into human hands
Like grief, oceans can rise up — and destroy
Rise faster than oceans. Jump in. Join for joy.
Black lives matter? They do. Get up. Rise together!
Hashtag MeToo? Liberate. Ring a brand, new bellwether
Indigenous people, and planet, have wisdom to spare;
The song of the grass, the heart of the bear
March for our lives, Yes, and for all life on Earth
March for sea ice, for resilience, rebirth
March for body acceptance, for jobs, and for gender
March for repentance. She’s your mother, defend her
