The Stench

leaving the stench
 of extinguished species
across scorched dirt
beastly commercialism’s
love of the green lining pockets
born from tomorrow may never come
prompts consummation of resources
and  without manners of a cat
 leaves unburied their
poop and piss of pollution
 gagging every earthly creature
