Notre-Dame Cathedral Burns Like Fuel In Your Car, Plane, Butt



Fire burns the 'great' cathedral
People crying
History lost
Coverage all over the world

Fire burns your fossil fuels
Fire burns inside internal combustion engines
Fire burns to lift the plane that delivers your 'Amazon'
Fire burns to take you to your vacation spot

Fire burns the forests in Canada and U.S.
Drought came first
Greed came first
"Give me convenience or give me death"

No connect-i-on-s with climate change/dis-ruption
No world coverage
Keep it a secret
What's the score in the latest 'game'?

What's the score of diminishing resources?
What's the score on lack of clean drinkable water?
How's the game of clean air?
What's the score on the toxins in your food?
What the count of endless living organisms murdered by spraying fossil fuels on the land?
[used to make herbicides, pesticides, fertilizers: and very delicious and nourishing and safe: TRUST the company that profits from selling them!]

The climate emergency is more important than a relic
Representing taking money from the poor 
To make the obedient, rich and clergy feel safe
Built with slave labour

God doesn't live in temples
S/he lives among the poor and oppressed
Seen through the hope-full and wonder-full Creat-i-on
For there we find release

As greedy people, of all COLOURS/races
Devour each other and Creation
Destroying the very children: human and nonhuman
Of the Creator

For Creation reveals the great-ness and good-ness of God
Let us do all we can to protect it [we are it]
It is God's [or reason's/universe's/Buddha's/etc ad nauseum] demand
It is essential:

O LORD my God, you are very great;
you are clothed with splendor and majesty [nature].
He wraps himself in light as with a garment;
he sretches out the heavens like a tent
and lays the beams of his upper chambers on the water.
He makes the clouds his chariot
and rides on the wings of the wind. 
He makes winds his messengers [or angels],
flames of fire his servants.....

He waters the mountains from his upper chambers [yes rain is good!];
the earth is satisfied by the fruit of his work.
He makes grass grow for the cattle, 
and plants for man to cultivate-
bringing forth food from the earth:
wine that gladdens the heart of man...

The lions roar for their prey
and seek their food from God...

How many are your works, O LORD!
In wisdom you made them all;
the earth is full of YOUR creatures.....

These all look to you
to give them their food at the proper time...

When you hide your face,
they are terrified...

When you send your Spirit,
they are created,
and you renew the face of the earth.

May the glory [nature] of the LORD endure FOREVER;
may the LORD rejoice in his works [nature].

Praise the LORD, O my soul.
Praise the LORD.

Psalm 104 NIV
