The Whiskey Taster’s Flavor Guide

Earth Day Everyday

Bury our filth beneath the Earth.
And rape the land for all it's worth.
Since when is just asking, asking too much?
The lack of concern is concerning,
  we are so out of touch.
There is no conservation, only building frustration.
We spew more and more toxins into the air.
But the human race watches without a care.
The burden will be passed onto the next generation.
Until the point that it crumbles every last nation.
If the Ocean could speak, I'm sure she would cry.
Dirty and deprived, she would ask us all why.
  How much is enough!
Or is there even a concept of enough?
  The path we follow is rough.
Just trying to exist will be tough.
