everydays extinction

Alan Green 'Guppyman'

i have to write my poem
to try to make you see
all the problems of the world
to see that they are real

iwill tell you of the pollution
that we pour into the seas
no more forest left
we have chopped down all the trees

elepants are fewer
the whales are even less
everydays extinction
until there no thing left
