Tell Me Why…
Ecosystems live.
Biodiversity thrives.
Where…man is least found.

Poetic form: Haiku
You fling words
with the same concern
as skimming stones
offhandedly
and
unenlightened
not once
recognizing
the escalating consequences
upon the delicate ecosystems
of the human psyche
You don’t just love a person,
you love who you are with them,
the you, you see reflected in their eyes
you love the vision of your life with them.
When it’s gone, you have to mourn it all
the whole ecosystem of connectedness.
Old realities can look shabby in comparison.
Which of these does man have control over? (Choose all that apply)
_ Rainfall deficits trigger biotic crisis
_ Acid rain decimates ecosystems
_ ICBMs rain down destruction
_ None of the above

Waves crash
Your wrapper crumples
Thrown into the crazy waters
Killing the creatures in the coral
Little by little
Commonly found everywhere
Floating
Caution in the water
With chemicals creeping
Coastline to coastline
Laced with pollution
Fish collide with waste
Communities and ecosystems
Decimated
In Search For Nature
land ravaged by fire
from ashes life will return
rebirth of nature

resplendent, lustrous
invigorating, radiating, warming
humans, habitats, ecosystems, vegetations
captivating, energising, enlightening
scintillant, fluorescent

To act the fool
Is to not be a fool
Global warming
Intense drought
Melting polar caps
Flooding waters
Freak climate change
Out-of-control heatwave
Man-made abuse
Nature now fights back
Damaged natural ecosystems
Near extinction levels
Consider a world:
Earth without man
Why not?
Don’t laugh

Singapore
Turquoise, neither blue nor green but in between,
subtle but bright,
relaxing with might,
dashing with personality
a bottom feeder with height,
gives nonchalant habitats life
and ecosystems thrive.
It gives intimidation a fright,
exhilaration a surprise.
It's free in the sea
serene in a rainbow's scheme.
It's in limited supply
so the demand should be high.
But not so maybe with time.
Form:
Machiavellian schemes besmirch a murky mangrove calm
A propeller breaks the tranquil glass over an underwater farm
Neath the broken still, a peaceful giant stirs with alarm
and no consolation is found as noise churns it's quiet charm
The serene spots need to be augmented for they are our balm
Ecosystems need protection from greedy developers’ harm
Empyrean Earth for all, is in our active palms, giving alms…
(5/12/21: Custom ketch; KKMI Richmond)
You're the anchor of my mental health
contaminating the sea I'm in
a place where ecosystems fail
there is no life, my skin's rusting
you don't believe my boat can sail
instead a rust as rot seeps in
for now untraveled and still new
a prisoner to shallow thinking
and there is no changing you
wanting me stuck slowly sinking
I'm will explore the oceans blue
away from you, your lies and drinking
I see you a contaminator
goodbye mother, I'll see you later
Ecosystems are being strained
We stand alone as the culprit
Every night when I have prayed
I wake up and see they've botched it
In less than a year from now
It will reach the Atlantic
Dolphins, crabs and the sea foul
Will die before we panic
These black tides will devour
Killing pristine mating ground
Poison our shores every hour
Shutting our blue oceans down
Finger pointing will continue
Cleanups impossible, they say
Humanity's innuendo
Is riding on the tides today
