An Intense Heartbreak Deforestation Time Racked Body Poem by Terence George Craddock
An Intense Heartbreak Deforestation Time Racked Body
flesh pounding brain body beyond endurance
sound of severe heartbreak is nature ravaged
flame chaos huge blazing bushfires sweeping
across landscape raw wounds of deforestation
native forest felled bare earth ecosystems human
chainsaw bulldozers sacrilege destroyed weeping
wounds as plants wither die animals
dying dead extinct severe heartbreak
skin cuts an unendurable extinction
event no redemption life renewed breakthrough
moment species coming back from dead brink
sounds severe heartbreak cuts worse than most think
