Mother Earth keeps a-rockin’ n’ a-rollin’
dancing to a music we humans cannot hear.
Perhaps she knows what her dance moves are causin’?
Or maybe she is blinded by all her tears?
She shakes her ass like a professional dancer
or maybe a housewife dancing on the sly?
With her moves I’m sure she’s quite the romancer,
flirting with Jupiter and Neptune sailing by.
Mother Earth keeps the beat as she rumbles our oceans,
volcanos that erupt is merely how she sings!
She dances to stay sane and won’t care about commotions
she causes us wee humans as she does her thing.
As she shimmies her mountains, we get avalanches,
when she drops it like it’s hot, tsunamis wash in.
At some of her moves, even Mercury he blanches,
not used to a woman dancing free of sin.
To forget that we are killing her is why she dances,
we are no longer listening, so what should she do?
On the dance floor once last time she will take her chances
without caring how her dance moves affect me and you.
Mother Earth keeps a-rockin’ n’ a-rollin’
dancing to a music we humans cannot hear.
Perhaps she knows what her dance moves are causin’?
Or maybe she is blinded by all her tears?
The woman pictured is Alotta Boutté, an American entertainer, actress and burlesque dancer (I can’t find a specific site for her, but there are several interviews – read more here), who perfectly embodies the image I have of Mother Earth dancing in this piece (I got the picture through Google Image).
I love this!
Oh, I am so glad someone enjoyed it (apart from me)! Thank you very much for reading!
