An Intro to Saving the World
By: Basil. W
I ask them to be respectful
and treat me kindly
and keep me like a ripe, healthy, lemon
full of water and vitamins
I want them to pick up after themselves
to keep me shiny and clean
or fix me where and when I am hurt
I say they should take gently,
and only take what is needed
to keep me busy
but all they want to do is
throw me into a juicer aggressively
and get everything out
and quickly turn me into a
dry, shriveled, and dead planet
