On Earth Day
Earth Day’s not a worth day
For the skeptics and polluters
And, add to that, the bigots and
The ask-no-question shooters.
For those who value someone’s life
So little they’d take aim
And fire a weapon with no thought
That they could kill or maim
Most certainly don’t care about
The animals and plants
Or rescuing our planet
When, right now, we have a chance.
It’s sad to think about the earth
That we will leave behind,
But even worse to face
The callousness of humankind.
