A poem asking why it is not the same everywhere when we are all under the singular sky.

Housed under one roof

we’re the children of the sky

yet you’re biased, I say you are

I question myself why?

When it pours somewhere

somewhere its sunny bright

waves leap and bound in floods

drowning lands out of sight.

Some regions the apple of your eye

bounties in abundance

and there it crackles in drought dismal

the riddles of providence.

Now do not recite nature’s laws

theories have lost logic

for you know they’re all preordained

all your  black magic.

Or why should culprits go scot free?

Weaklings penalized?

Why are things unfair everywhere,

that cannot  be verbalized?

    very creative one.. well composed.
    I also find the sky treats us differently, staying near the equator, everyday is so hot and humid.

    Thank you for the inspiration for my next article. I was stuck without direction and now I have it. Since the fall of man, evil has lead us to believe the sky is partial to one over another. This will soon change and then everyone will see the sky is the same towards you and me. Very eye opening poem even if not entirely on point. It begs to question.

    Tough question.

    We don’t know. Maybe one day we’ll have the answers.
