The world is too much with us

The world is too much with us; the gloom Reported on bbc of record showers, Earthquakes following hurricanes; Our Society points to running taps, loom Through darkness under light of moon: How Proteus would correct these efforts, But he eludes and so their Animals are caught, boon For a Big Mac, a chicken curry Or rack of ribs torn Flesh from a bone that, saved, would breathe Life back into a still born World; reports continue and impending fear Has not aroused the old man or even Triton’s wreathèd horn.
