reunited
two humans landlocked
on the only continent
left on earth
it is like an island
surrounded by four oceans
but the fact remains
it is a continent
larger than a little planet
as if south america
and africa were conjoined
reunited if you will
adding to the complexity
of a dying planet needing
more trees and moisture
and sunlight
two humans walking
hand in hand
retracing their footsteps
back to the garden
to the one and the only
how can this story ever end
march two thousand twenty
