The smoke from the burning of tropical rain forests can already be seen from satellites miles above Earth.
The indigenous people of the true, original First World are preparing themselves for the final struggle.

match. I won't know what to wear
and when to wear it and I

to fit into places I've never bothered
to fit into. There are square pegs
that spend their lives trying to squeeze
into round holes, but I wasn't even
given four straight sides, I am shapes
when none are required, I am
a million wrongs stuffed into
something I never asked if it
was right. I am this, and I've
never been that, I've no plans
to remedy the broken bits.”
