COLLAGE POEM
Against A Tide
 

Oh look
The reefs are dying
their brain-shaped globes
starved for sunlight
The water they breathe
now drowns them
Polar bears too
I hear
can no longer 
walk the melted ice
They will languish 
and become myth
Still
we fight our wars
Our hearts blinded
our eyes numb
The corrupt
leading corruption
On the reefs
the fish are homeless
They do not know
they have been displaced
They only know
the water deepens
