Our Footprint
by Sam Doctors (samdoctors701@gmail.com)
Our footprint
grows beyond Gala’s
ability to meet our demands.
We dip into the store of water,
we spread across the land
we foul the air with fire,
filling the air with detritus,
taking without thought
of seven generations,
or even the next,
so that others
may in future have less and less
and the little or none.
Lovely. A small group of us is Reading All We Can Save. This fits right in.

Wow, yep. This is like an upside down ode that is sadly true in a world where we seem to be steering full steam ahead into dystopia and an abyss. Well done.
