Can’t Breathe This Greed Industrialization Poem by Terence George Craddock (Spectral Images and Images Of Light)

atmosphere
provide
oxygen

atmosphere
provide
carbon dioxide

atmosphere provide
for plants animals
seal in an ecosystem


atmosphere
guardian part
of water cycle

complex interactions
elements in atmosphere
without atmosphere

there would
be possible
no life at all


give me a little
of my God given air
of my God created air

give me a little
so i may breathe in renewed
complex wonder of creation

pollution sticks in my throat
burns eyes throat burns
mankind is burning creation


can’t breathe this
greed
industrialization

give
me less greenhouse
gases

earth pump
as God created
engineered


give me
a little
clean air
