Waiting

The earth will not speak
as I depress my feet into it's thick skin
pressing with my weight
It voices no readily discernible opinions
waiting as it has always waited
an observer really
watching and waiting

And then one day
as it has always been
unexpectedly it cries out
incensed by the abuse it bears

It waited patiently
as it had before
and now it presses back
It's weight bearing on our shoulders
