I want to live
I want to live in this wild world where people are magic
Where recycling is a detox for the earth.
But the poison is spreading like a puffball after a fire
The earth is rotting but they keep it in the dark
It’s like people are on hallucinogens.
“They can’t see,” said anxiety
“They are forgetting where they come from,” said depression
“The people are there but not paying attention,” said love
“No, they love the earth,” said joy
“I want to live,” said the earth
like a waterfall after the rain
“What if we could live differently?” said anxiety
“What if we never change?” said depression
“What if we never wake up to what is happening?” said love
What if, what if, what if
“What if we go back to when we had a partnership with her?” said joy
What if we go back to when she was happy
She is mother
Mother earth
