Human Folly

A giantess

walking across emerald fields

sunshine haloing her head

from loose grip

falls seeds

trees

flowers

shrubs

beneath her toes

land leaps and forms

bass flying through the air

to land

splash

down to earth

in a lake that had just not been there.

She is the fire

burning core.

She is the wind

sweet breeze

spreading far.

She is the earth

tales all told

from her lips

to the ears of all who listen.

She is the calm sea

embracing life

giving it back to the shore.

Her tears bring forth monstrosities

as she screams at humanity’s folly.

Her rage crumbles cities

as she sweeps across the land

eyes ever vigilante.

Her anguish

her pain

resounds

echoing down paths followed by the more sensitive.

What is there we can do?

How to stem this tide?

Washed to sea

blooded dry

oh holy mother

please

please

Lady Earth

Gaia strong

let us repent

before you throw us all to the wolves

as payment

for our abuses.

Midnight’s Reaver

She etched her sigils

inked her intent

into flayed skin

spread before

burning hatred

reaches through her soul.

Scorching her feet to the earth.

Trembling at the violence

swelling to consume

she loses herself in the tidal wave

allowing it to break open

to cascade

a bruised violet

enveloping her.

Mouth wrenched open

soundless howl

drawing unto her

the power

the might

of crackling energy

for she dares to fight.
