The Earthling

The Earthling by Brian Patten was about how life on earth was started.  At the start of this poem it talked about how life on earth began with inventions.  In the middle section it talked about how mistakes were made kind of like today (2000's).  In the ending it talked about how the earth is getting destroyed and how everyone is spreading apart (relationships and what not).  There is also a fire that spreads across the earth in the end of the poem our group figured that, that was the sun that caused the fire.

  I thought this poem was hard to figure out, but if you read each line carefully you can get the real meaning out of it.
