Ugly Yellow Stain
Poseidon is blowing a current
Making a tormented sea
Reflecting what is mirrored above
Ugly yellow political stain
Corroded bubbling cancerous film
Spreading stealthily
But not silently
Waves of despair growing larger
Until mermaids rise up
Tails forming beautiful swirls
To tame the torment
Take back the rights of dignity
With moral compass straightened
Billowing yellow imprisoned
Their reining light brings calm seas
The young and old quit despair
Restore the sane with liquid voices
Greed swallowed by compassion
Slowly fill the ocean
With sweet fruit of truths
Not silenced anymore
