Litter

Litter here, litter there
Piles of litter everywhere.
Bins half empty or piled high
Too much packaging in supply.  

Plastic, paper, metal cans
Liquid spillage in sea and lands.
Waters full of micro beads
Man-made plastic, choking seeds. 

Wasted food turns to stench and rot
Flies and rats love those spots.
Wrappers, *** butts, strewn about
Selfish litter louts without a doubt.
 
Dumping rubbish is our failure
A lazy, filthy human behaviour.
We are failing earth and nature
Can we change or even save her?
