Dirty Pond


The many drops of rain Each splash forms a tiny circle Call that the spiral of human livelihood It expands so vastly with extreme celerity It's as if it expanded to the point Where the circle can't stick together So it's gone...the planet that is The human body has expanded too far For our Mother to nourish with what's already been abused But then more drops come to replenish
