Disgusted
As you kill
The sea
Creatures dying
In a black swirling haze
Confused about how you can
Explain it away
Take a position of defense
Failure to admit
The destruction
Every morning on the news
You talk about the new methods
You intend to use
Damage will be minimal
So you claim
But I can hear the cries
Of desperation
As our environment lay dying

I bet you as tired of the platitudes from industry and government as I am. I grew up without plastic and made a few cents when I recycled news papers and returned soda bottles to the store. Thanks.
