Self-proclaimed heirs
The earth is, reshaped by people
worth the earth more than once
not for itself, but for us
the self-proclaimed heirs
After an epidemic the houses collapse
but years later, the crops, savaged
are still there, and fissured
the roads are still there -
for new people
building new houses
and the earth pays and suffers
what people wish for
I wonder what is enough
if it is self-evident
that one's sweat is worth itself
only once
