Climate Refugee

Imagine being rejected by your country.

The land of your ancestors turning its back on you.

After generations of cooperation

A synergy that snowballed into exploitation:

Imagine the environment grows resentful.

When humans become a threat to home,

Sweet home becomes hostile;

Inhospitable to human life.

Imagine the place you love

trying to drive you out.

Imagine the heartache of having to leave.

Now imagine the fear -

With nowhere to go

in this anti refugee climate.

what hope is there for the climate refugee?
