News From Our Mother I spin around to make a day and a night So you can work, play and sleep I travel long distances to make the seasons So you can have different and predictable experiences I am surrounded by an envelope That lets in just enough sun to warm you But not enough to burn you I have many children of many different kinds Who all make their way in the world however they can Most of them take what they need and leave the rest And once upon a time it all balanced out eventually That is not true anymore One group of my children has become greedy Now I think balancing out eventually Is a thing of the past This group seems to think That I will provide for them forever Regardless of what they do I do not think they realize That I will go on no matter what they do But I may not welcome them anymore
