Destruction and healing

by Noel A. Ihhebuzor

 

The pounded flaked skin

of earth floats scattered wide by

nature’s raw rage, slashed

 

gashed by savage blows

stabbed and pummelled she bleeds tears

littered with debris

 

amid bobbing wrecks

here and there, hope stands stubborn

 set to heal the earth
