Look What We Killed

By robert braunstein

Poem,Society,Big Oil, Environment,

::::::::

They tore up the ocean
They drilled in the sea
Looking for oil
For you and me
They fished out the water
They dumped in the sea
Looking for fish
For you and me
They tore up the mountains
And flattened the stone
Looking for coal
And gold they must own
They fouled up the air
Industrial waste
They poisoned the air
No values they placed
They built huge rockets
And went out in space
They searched for water
They screwed up the place.
They came from the ashes
They crawled out of the sea
They ruined the earth
For you and me.
We all got a share
Everyone gained
We sh-t where we eat
The day that it rained.
