Tiny Victories
one step at a time
Ride the wind, the cutting wind
curses me with indolence, regret
towards the close of day
clouds swirl, blue celebrates
tiny victories
As cynicism drains away
thoughts tumble over the cliff face
thoughtless man lacks the will to care
the whole green earth suffers at his hands
we do what we can.
A woman’s care is gracefully sustained
her flair to create beauty
even in the most barren of lands.
Man’s linear thinking
inflicts this bloody calvary upon nature
time after time after time
knowing the cost of everything
the value of nothing,
Man wreaks havoc
on nature’s every feature;
his rape of mother earth
is the most terrible of things
all we have is tiny victories.
