RATS, COCKROACHES AND POLAR BEARS
The sun grew hot in the Arctic
Toxins rose from the ocean floor
Habitat destroyed
Driven to extinction
Unaccounted for.
~~~~~
We swam in search of icebergs
Hundreds of miles or more
My cubs drowned from exhaustion
Before I reached the shore.
~~~~~
Once on land I searched for food
I couldn’t find it anywhere
Invisible on Ice – Ignored on Land
The humans did not care.
~~~~~
Left to seek friends from low places
Among garbage and poisonous air
“Come dine with us, we have plenty to share,”
said
The rats and cockroaches
of the dumpsters and landfills
To The Earth’s
Last Polar Bear.
