Lament Of The Earth

     

Oh man, you shattered my joy   

Ransacked my abode              

And humiliated me                  

But I was calm and quiet 

You have been quite rapacious      

You polluted my soul                 

And vitiated my children              

Still, I sheltered you on my lap 

You exploited me                   

To satiate your pleasure               

You ridiculed me in pursuit of pleasure 

But I was quite compassionate 

You deceived many                  

Who stood beside you               

Now you are in great peril             

Still, I try to protect you 

The demon has come                

To wipe you out                      

Wielding the lash of CORONA         

Now, I am lost and helpless 

Where is your courage?               

What about your science?             

Use your wisdom                     

And save yourself from this tyranny
