Earth's Cry

Ever since the world has become so innovated in sciences and such things, it's been recorded that nature is being repressed and dying. The pictures above are a representation of our world as it is right now. Is the newest pandemic a call to action by greater powers than ourselves? Is the Earth crying out that something is wrong?

But how are we to know?

"In ancient times

A plague was a sign.

That something was wrong

That the gods despised.

An evil ruler

A wretched law

These were the things

A plague fell upon

Out of dark moments

Pink flowers grow.

But science and such things

Are now what we know.

People are dying

Sick in their chest

The healers are ridden

And denied their rest.

We're denied

The things that we love

But we are not sick-

We can shoulder on.

As the death toll rises

I ask you one thing-

Perhaps the gods

Despise our king?"
