Our Imperative Earth
(By Komene Famaa)
But we billions of people
Are also a growing horde
Devouring
And polluting
The magnificent biosphere
That keep us
We are marauding the Earth garden
From which every hope grows
And we alone
Who threaten it
Are we alone
Who can protect it.
Unlike a meteor
Hurtling to Earth
We can turn
Our selves around.
Our imperative
Is to rescue ourselves
From ourselves
By ourselves
We can no more escape
This responsibility
Than we can escape our birth
On Earth.
We will succeed together
Or fail apart.
