The small girl walked out of her house, her face downcast and sad.561Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNjbUTFx2KI
Far away from her, situated  on another part of my mass, a tiny child, his body hideously thin, cried out for food as he starved.561Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFHNQNBJAv3
And on yet another part of my being, men fell by the hundreds, impaled by small pieces of lead. I suddenly shook with horror and began to weep, my grief sending rain down in torrents.561Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH3zqa1IF3e
Nothing had stopped, nothing had changed since the day my children came into existence.561Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ20Bs6k6IJA
My children still hated each other, still killed each other, I was disregarded and abused,.561Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡErxqtZ6xc8
The lesser creatures that inhabited me, did not know me, they were ignorant, and killed each other also in a deadly cycle, but they differed from the humans.561Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡorDd2CLdhH
Humans understand death, but killed and inflicted pain without cause, animals possessed  no understanding, only instincts.561Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡna6zrto52y
And I possessed the grief laden task of witnessing the misery and depravity  unfolding inside my own body.561Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNB9wV8wAo5
Times of actual joy were rare, but here and there I would catch a glimpse of a celebration, or a happy family, and my body would shudder, wishing for more love.561Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHR8s6Otqlu

The humans' learned men spoke true. when they said my heart was physically fiery and unbearably hot, but the only thing I could feel from the depths of my fiery core 561Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZQGjEwG56y
were loneliness and  sadness.561Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRjmTjceN0Q
I am Mother Earth, and I am dying.  561Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGyXG6KvlG1
