Bushfires

whispers in the air

all talk about the fires

fires that have destroyed

fires that have ruined

our precious bushland

our precious animals

our homeland

forever scarred

by the endless flames

engulfing our bush

hours to minutes to seconds

raging blazes

quickly, expertly

devour our country

devour our creatures

hungry for power

hungry for heat

hungry for more

can't won't will not 

be stopped
