The earth is like a woman who from her youth,
Has been assaulted and molested.
From the depth of her heart she weeps, she trembles, and she quakes;
Because she realizes that all of her sins have been exposed
And she knows the hour of the Lord’s visitation is near.
All of those who have known her and abused her are unaware,
Because they are all like blind sheep, with the wool grown over their eyes.
They cannot recognize the signs and they do not realize the time.
― Miriam
