Forest Fires

The smoke in our lungs

is making us too tired

to fight the battle

that this stolen country started.

And each week

the fire has spread

to another border.

Where children 

who were born on fire 

are just trying to survive

breathing smoky air.

Our flames are temporary.

Theirs are constant.
