Rant: Wretched Plastic Everywhere

There's wretched plastic everywhere We drop it here, we chuck it there We landfill it with urgency We leave it there as legacy We poison planet once pristine We now despair of polythene We see it blowing in the air We just pretend it is not there We see it snagged up in the trees We watch it waving in the breeze We see it swimming in the sea We wonder where it next will be We walk on streets that once were clean We step over polystyrene We dump disposables galore We trip on them spread on the shore We drop it here, we chuck it there There's wretched plastic everywhere
