About California's Water Woes (Free Verse)

I heard an interesting fact
On the local news yesterday
About California's water woes
One area of California spent
$70,000,000 to buy
Enough water to supply
100,000 Californian homes
With water for one year
From Farmers
Assuming Californian's are
Like rabbits
And there are 10 people
In each household
That is enough water
For 1,000,000 Californians
For one year
What about
The other 37.80 million
Californians
