Bright-eyed and sparkling,
candle, wastes its life away;
defines another.
Birthday
Prime
Amidst green patches,
stripped of life; bald surfaces,
prime real estate.
Forests
A protective force
on the outskirts of our towns—
forests no one knows.
Moon
Tidal commander
smiles at me from miles away;
half-moon spectacle.
Dry
Lifeblood running out—
the river as dry as bone;
hypoxic city.
