The mountains of the world can’t get much higher
The trees in the forests cannot scream louder
Plants in Columbia get turned to powder
Fumes from factories make smoke circle choirs
Windows can’t retain their glassy clarity
The chemical cleaners spray more pollution
As people disregard the devolution
Breathing stops at remarkable celerity
Wires dangling above wallowing willows
Get chewed on by birds bewildered by the taste
Tops of trees catch fire, smoke rises in billows
But don’t worry more will grow, there’s no waste.
