AUBURN SKIES

Gazing into auburn skies,

Into choking poisoned air,

Still we pump more chemicals in,

Without a single thought or care.

 

The air heats up unhealthily,

And monster storms are born,

Mother Earth cries out in pain,

As we slowly work disaster bourn.

 

They say "Climate change is fake",

Not believing we're to blame,

In killing our one and only home,

We all though should feel shame.

 

It shall soon be to late,

And we'll all say our goodbyes,

Hacking up blood from poisoned lungs,

From breathing in our auburn skies.
