Venom From a Snake

I walk along the empty beach

Picking up seashells within my reach

The air around me holds an empty stillness

As people realize our worlds illness

 

It's too late to take back our mistake

This time we poisoned the ocean with venom like a snake

We cannot take back what we have done

Or sit idly in the sun

 

We must take action

We must react to this reaction

Or else animals will die

Or else we will die
