Earth!

Earth, 

aka the World, 

aka Terra, 

aka Gaia!

Earth,

the Sun's blue-eyed third born,

the densest of 9 children

all her other siblings possibly zombified,

the only one still accommodating life,

and the most obese of the 4 possessive ones!

Earth,

current home of the 'man',

a virile viral & villainous ape sub-specie

annihilating all her vigor and vivacity with unceasing voracity!

Earth,

that under-celebrated, ever present wonder

we can merely talk of

though rarely walk under.
