Damn it this is our planet!

Palindrome Poem...Reverse Verse about our Perverse Universe (flip gravity.. what goes down must then come up - sorry..read down then back up) "In this place we all call home Monstrously Machiavellian Doesn’t have to be Islands of strangers Ominously Orwellian Tribal totems & talismans tome Demagogic Or Pedagogic logic Instead could still see Rangers free from dangers roam Embraces spaces for all races & faces Riffs not tiffs with what ifs Fracking probe..ransacking the globe Attacking our cerebral lobe Saluting high falutin polluting.. evolution? The earth burns as it turns..on its axis Heed the greed creed..poleaxes Pay your taxes? Plead to feed those in need One man struggles while another relaxes The solution…revolution? Oceans just toxic potions Due to noxious notions Wary of the lairy scary Dairy Fairy Much as I try.. won’t lie Can hear that guy..Jamiroquai cry Emergency on planet earth! Red herring or derring do or die Demonstration or veneration of deforestation Placards do the hard yards versus lanyards Deny or defy.. scorched turf? What’s it worth? Torched by the debauched Wince..since birth a serf? Log in to your singed noggin They’ve binged..impinged In the middle of a fiddle & diddle riddle Damn it this is our planet Taking the piddle Avarice hubris bliss In this place we all call home"
