Global Warming
Angello 2008 (Trenton,New Jersey)
The trees grow
The winds blow
For now at least
Fire rises in the west and east
A fully consumed undeniable beast
The rage uncontained
Out of control
Burning with a passion for star crossed lovers
The moon glows
But so do the embers that consume the land
Eat and defile with no barrier
Now you lay your head to sleep
Wondering will wake to
Waves of red and heat
The air you breathes is in constant turmoil and stress
The earth is the victim of global warmings undying quest
About this poem
This poem is about the earth and the stress it is under from global warming. It is almost as if Global warming is personified as a monster that is uncontained
