1.5°c | A Poem About Climate Change

the point

is not here

nor anywhere

in the future of this

earth,

slowly we kill our ground

and stand our ground

and listen not to

the sound,

of fire cracking, those

branches falling and

people scream as their homes

swim

or sink

away,

so the point is

without your change

there is no point

if you remain

as you are,

but a small piece

of a big part

who will save the earth if

we start

to eat,

for the planet and those that inhabit,

to pay,

for products that don’t pollute

each day

and grey, the air

shall be

and see,

not past thirty feet

and see, finally,

the point is the change

in you and we.

1.5°c.
