THE SMELL OF THE EARTH
The Smell Of The Earth
The story of
the earth child
who lives on
the face of the earth
feet grounded on the dust
body sleeping on the leaves
fallen from the ground
no home to go home to
yet the bounty of the earth
is here for all
ocean filled with life
waterfalls that drench
the ground
water that feeds the earth
plenty of food
on the table
resources abound
for all to share
not for some
but for all
to partake
bounty from the bosom
of the earth
the odor of the body
unwashed for months
smelly and dirty
the smell of the earth
expressing itself
as the homeless child of the earth
people unaware
buys perfume
to cover-up the smell
resisting to sit beside him
