A million people drinking Their lemon-flavored tea A billion bottles floating Upon a poisoned sea Within each bottle there's a note To peeps who find the plastic shell It's just a slip of paper From the manufacturer from hell. The water pipes in old Detroit Are poisoning kids dead Because the linings have worn off And underneath was lead Pollution will run red as blood The sun as black as coal While the fat cats who caused it Relax on sandy shoals. How can we prevent this? Is Recycling the way? Hasn't helped much that I see I prefer to PRAY. SoulSurvivor November 2021

Wasteland
