She is delicate
and disheveled
in the wind,
deconstructed
and withered
by the frost—
and I am forever fearing
I can't be man enough
to make this world appear
safe, or hospitable.
That I could really fail her,
until the day we die.

your morning,
soaked in kerosene
& dripping softly -
mine, a match
with only one path
& dreaming of flame -
let's see
what we can do
together.

CLIMATE COUPLET
The mistake is to think Robber Barons care
about Earth or anyone, or that they'll share
