Doth We Hurt Thou?

How gracious thou
Of Sacred blood
Who walk upon
Mine burden land
The fields are brown
The homes are ripped
And still thy legs
Through danger dwell
Sweet velvet sea
Of never blue
Rejects his waste
On dirtied earth
Thou art seeing
This stale repeat
Of walking regret
And talking sin
Through rotting walls
Run metal pipes
That smite thee
With their hateful water
Repugnance seen through
Buildings gray
That tower over
Hostile streets
They reject thee
With their torn up lives
Screams from the graves
Reflect their practices
Our selfishness
Is ours to weep
Though thine eyes of warmth
Are newly painted blue

Great poem, I'd add puncuation, it would make it so much more meaningful. Keep writing.
