Whispers To Me

Dams, mining, extraction and fracking!                     
Logging, trawling, oops this urban expansion!

Plastic, toxic sludge and fertilisers,
Industrial revolution, Mass production!
Rising pollution and depleting fossil fuel.
Expanding population, you greedy humans!


Squeezing nature and melting glaciers 
Chocking gases creating Climate conundrum.
Speeding extinction, your helpless restrictions.
Destructing ozone layers, eroding my very foundations!

The earth in pain whispers to me: 
                         Why are you causing this depredation?
                                   Look at my dereliction!
                                   Please stop this destruction.
