you can only shit & eat
in the same place for so long
once the fracking chemicals
start showing up in your veins
you'll know the canaries & pelicans
were right
the
one thing the president
failed
to mention when he sawfish swimming in the streets of miami
was that you shouldn't
be eating the fish
the
fools in tallahassee have actually said
they
want to frack the evergladesyeah the wetland of all wetlands
regulation is just a code word
for corporate capitulation
just ban it damn it
of
course what use to be lowlands
might
be an underwater key tomorrowwhen it feels like rain clouds colliding
with high tide
you might want
to sleep in your life jacket
& hazmat suit
the
folks who should know better
seem
distracted by a hundred other thingseven a slogan like
there is no planet B
is too weak too late
looking
to the gators to save us
