Oil Volcano Against a Gulf

|.| |.| |.| |.| /.\ ... ..... ....... ......... An oil rig is burning up Mourning for eleven dead Beaches blackened with tar From drowning birds To shattering lives Oil volcano against a gulf A pipe that still gushes It is too late for blame It may just never be fixed From failed attempt After foot-in-mouth We need more than prayers The fisherman lose lives They skim oil instead of Our 3rd coast is in peril! Still pipes pollute Robots can not help A disgusting mess this big We should sustain within At very least geothermal Farm solar instead of corn As Germany is doing Fueling off our own Equally paying our farmers America can not afford To go on wasting a day If we boycott, we will pay Pump price going up We see what they do BP might raise them anyway
