“Let it be so,”
her voice boomed
this command.
And with one fell swoop,
she destroyed all the land.
“For too long
they have taken
and not returned
the fruit of the earth
and then leave it burned.
From this point on,
let it be known,
that She is not
something you own.”
The windows shattered
and the ground shook
as the rain pattered
hitting every nook.
The ground split
and the seas rose
and life ceased
as the book closed.
“And it is so,”
a mere whisper in the dark
just waiting,
waiting,
waiting
for a
spark.
Did you mean, “hitting every ‘nyook'”?
