Our Orb

Oh mother

I’m sorry we’re hurting you

I’m sorry we’re not listening to your cries

Us humans, hurt anything great

Our selfishness defines our love

Our hunger defines our wealth

Our nurturing defines our personality

From pandemics

To earthquakes

To tornados

You’re warning us

Some are listening

Most are defining their love, wealth, and personality

We need to be stronger for you

We need to be compassionate for you

Oh mother

I’m so sorry
