#Haiku Happenings #10: Petru’s latest #haibun for my current #haikai challenge!
So small, so old and not as round as we’d like to think, nearing the used up date at a frightening speed as it hurls itself around the blistering sun; itself in decline. This ending – by the hand of man (it’s a fact). Yes, earth is dying by the hand of man; the gender-codified being who thinks it’s the universe. Would it have been different under a matriarchy? I wonder. And how will we now know?

what’s left of unkempt land
– kerbed dreams
