Personify Her: Maybe They'll Listen by Jasmine Farrell

“Personify Her: Maybe They’ll Listen” by Jasmine Farrell

The earth is dying… Greenhouse gases turnt up in the worst way.

We say c'est la vie and focus on the decorated green.

We undress nature’s attirerefuse to admire it from afar and hope for the hedonistic best.

Glaciers have no business stripping down to the socks.

Sky rocketing stock won't decrease the planet’s surface levels.

Ain't no joyous revels as the global sea level rises.

We continue on with our lives, leaders calling climate change a myth, hoping that will help us get rid of it.

Meanwhile summer temperatures gettin' higher while advocates are called liars.

There's a monolith between us and the facts.

We can't myth this away. The droughts tell it some while melting ice caps tell it all. The earth is dying. Can’t you hear her crying out?

Jasmine Farrell, from Brooklyn, NY is a freelance writer and poet. Her most recent poetry collection, Long Live Phoenixes is available exclusively on Amazon. She wants people to reclaim who they are, so they can live life authentically and with purpose.
