Heads In The Sand Poem by Tango

Heads in the Sand

As the world revolves on its axis,
goverments continue to grab, more, and more taxes.
On weapons of self destruction, billions are spent,
nothing on pollution, or the enviroment.
Thousands of new machines, pollute the air every day,
hundreds of new chimneys, pour more waste into skies of grey.
The hole in the ozone layer, is the largest its ever been,
toxic algae, turn the sea into a sickly green.
As the earths increasing temperature is slowly felt,
so the polar ice caps continue to melt.
The seas are rising and thats a fact,
how long will it be before the authorities decide to act.
