The Voice under foot

Forever an age I've been around
A home to many a base a shroud
Within I house a fiery glow
Of molten rock black gold that flows
At times I build colossal gas
Release my tension with vapour mass
A cloud a splutter I'm suddenly free
A teenage spot on my body
All feel free whom house on me
I ask not much my rent is free
Of all I ask while you roam please
Respect for my body so I can breathe
To groom me will be payment quite
To plant new seeds I'll take care right
So you help me and I'll help you
The perfect landlord, will help see you through
But wait a minute didn't see that coming
A mass has hit must be a comet
I'm all alone no friends at home
Slight peace at last as I grow cold
But through more time I develop at pace
For the impact on me has spawned a new race
Inquisitive beings of this I'm sure
Has taken the minds of the chimps with awe
For now they develop evolving with haste
These strange new beings embrace this new place
Within some time creating known states
As they develop this so called human race
An age now gone spread wild like fire
Have travelled the lands with open desire
A fledgling being divided by sea
For once where brothers from one body
Now assuming this nowhere to go
Developed these idols to worship and show
The friends they once knew whom entered their homes
Have now been enslaved I know not why though?
While all this time they care not for me
Develop themselves and draw from thee
To replenish what you take for free
Is an utter bargain do you not agree?
By celestial terms I'm a teen I'm sure
By human life I assume 104
For two world wars and bombs have blast
An impromptu grave for all harassed
For you must realise to care of me
Will help sustain your own body
By raping me you do no favours
I'm your one true love and only saviour
To break a rule of this I'm told
A firm hand of might must now be shown
By drilling and digging and burning my hide
Polluting and fracking you take for a ride
The consequence of these here actions
Is the same result when you have a reaction
An allergic response to a mosquito bite
Your body erupts and puts up a fight
To protect yourself from a viral attack
Just the way you humans interact
Agent Smith "The Matrix" he had the key
You colonise, conquer, destroy then flee
Of this here now I do not agree
Fix up your act look after me
For if I go can you not see
We 'The Planet Earth' will no longer be.
Inhale
Now hold
And realise that what gives you life, will inevitably be your own undoing
Now Exhale
