The Bleeding Earth By Jared Chimezie

The Earth, a wounded being, deeply sore
Her injuries evident on every shore
Bleeding in silence, her cries obscure
Dilapidated, her beauty no more
Skulls strewn like tokens, a deadly game
Blood rivers flowing, a tragic claim
Bombs applaud on citizens' fenced remains
While men fake smiles through searing pains
Wives and children, lost, aimlessly roam
In a motionless world, our planet's own
