Mermaid's Cry
Mermaid’s Cry
by Laura Summerville Reed
There’s a new hole in Jupiter’s sector today
Vast as an ocean I hear
I sit by the water
And the mermaids cry
As I read my heart’s lament
There’s a new hole in the Earth
Vast as humanity
Black gold
Black death
Angry red gaping wound
Screaming for attention
And no one to nurse it back to health
When space shuttles have begun to gather dust
And our astronauts are soon feasting well
On pirog and potato wine
I hope they remember to take plenty of pictures
To remember what we all looked like when
