Richard Rodriguez Poet Political Verse

Rainforest Fall

The fires are burning;
burning as much fauna as they can,
only man, in his infinite greed,
could do such a stupid, callous, suicidal
deed;
life by the millions are being wiped out,
we must divert from this madness,
we must take a new
Route;
there was a man, who stood up for the cause;
In his determination he created a
Pause,
but it did not last long, 
it was not much of a
run;
when businessmen, worried about
their profits; ended his life
with a gun
So now the fires are burning, 
much fiercer than before,
they will never be satiated,
till they burn it all.
