tread lightly on this sweet earth (note to humanity)

An environmental rumination

Quite odd
Do I find
People opposed
Over our environment...

Is it clean water
They protest?
Breathable air?
Stabilized weather…
Or natural resources?

Are delicate ecosystems that maintain balance
The thorn
& piercing
Through to our microbiome?

Do people really want glaciers to melt?
Do they fully comprehend impact?

I wonder if they perceive we only have

O N E
 N
 O N E

Environment for all?

Maybe they find themselves
Opposed to funding the
Clean up crew
Of wrongs
Set in motion centuries ago?
