Are You In Denial

Most people in denial of world pollution,
are they blindfolded, what other reasons? 
                          as messenger,
                            I beg all heed!

mechanically, chemically, killing life,
seas, oceans, lakes, rivers, hear nature scream,
in the process of a mass extinction,
do not stay in denial, shed your blindfolds, please!

        I am a messenger, harken,
        natures word's, her truth I do speak,

                          humanity,
                            she cries for it!

It is a preventable tragedy and no one can live without fresh water. Laws much change. So many throw expired pills in the toilet or drain. Where do they imagine they end up. A wonderful wakeup call Mick! Congratulations on your win! : )

That poor turtle; never had a chance. It's amazing the plastic ring did not kill it. You make sense.
