Her

Folder: 
Poems

Leaves littered through black roads

Interrupting Her humble abode,

Cutting like a surgeon's knife

Vericose veins on a virgin wife,

 

Her lungs, no longer whole

Wheeze, blackened by sulfur and coal

Pillaging Her and taking ours

Marching Her to the final hour

 

Tempest and Mother a like

King and serf tremble at Her might

Violent, will be the end

Reclaiming Her once again

 

Author's Notes/Comments: 

Haven't written in over a year. Trying to get back in the swing of things. I'm unsure about the final stanza. Any and all feedback is appreciated.

Ouch! Well, I hope Her end

Ouch! Well, I hope Her end isn't violent and she gets to heal instead. But I'm not really criticizing the last stanza.
