Recycled Weekend
5-3-10
starts with a fire
explosion in air
people die
can't be found
rig collapse
into the deep
a mile or more
bubbling crude
rising to surface
slow death
fish birds jobs
shut off none
months to recover
food gone
save what we can
earth be damned
all about
the money
drill
baby
drill
sounds hollow
now
doesn't it
oil
and
water
don't
mix

Very apt ending. They don't mix. Sometimes I wonder if humans and nature are not just an awful mix.

I think, collectively, as a whole, the human race, is bent on self destruction. Nature will win in the end, because nature has no time limit on recovery and will be here longer then mankind.
