{Reduce. Reuse. Recycle.}

Reduce. Reuse. Recycle.

I dare you to litter.
The masses will be bitter.

Expect evil eyes.
For the act has been stigmatized.

Pick up your doggy poo
Or they're gonna come after you.

And the worst crime of all,
The definition of gall -

The plastic bag.
Oh, how your public image will lag.

Excuse me.

Pardon me.
But eventually,

The reusable
Will, too, make the land fill full.

So, think wisely.
Be critical of what you see.

Compost
Your dark roast.

Remember your green bin,
And recycle your tin.

For it's the little things
that make the earth sing.

{The War in Afghanistan}

The War in Afghanistan

Uncle Sam,

Expanding his mission in Afghanistan.

Or is it only to get closer to Pakistan?

What does it mean for the Queen's women and men?

Will it make it more safe for them?

Or is it an invitation

For an even more aggressive opposition?

All of this wrath.

Who can predict the aftermath?

Terrorism.

Heroism.

Intervention.

Invasion.

Demolition.

Devastation.

Spending millions of dollars

Forcing millions into squalor.

When will it end?

And what will it mend?

Women forced,
With no option of divorce.

One step forward,

Two steps back.

Where's the progress?

Is it retrogress?
Politicians digress.

What's it all for?

Should we continue to fight this war?

{The Green Movement}

The Green Movement

The environment.
What a predicament.
We've gotten so used to covering it with cement.

But the movement has grown.
Seeds have been sewn.

Savvy citizenry
Join in the revelry.

Green and lean.
A powerful machine.

Global warming,

Sustainable farming.

Green wash,
Radioactive slosh.
They must be quashed.

Brought to the masses by Gore.
Remember the uproar.

Everybody aboard the bandwagon,
Magnets to the jargon,
Like hipsters to the cardigan.

Spokesmen with a celebrity glow.
Even DiCaprio.

Are we blinded by the light?

Afraid they are right -

that the end is in sight.

Melting ice caps.

Perhaps.

Or is this part of the plan?

A flash in the pan.

Or is it all a hoax -

A strategy to coax?

Likely we'll never know.

Leaving our children our woe.

{The H1N1 Virus}

The H1N1 Virus

Swine flu.
Who knew?

In Mexico, they got it.
But how does it transmit?

How far will it spread?
How many dead?

Trouble at the farm.
Sound the alarm.

Old McDonald gave it to his piggies.
Ee i ee i uh-oh.
Does that mean breakfast at Ronald's is a no-no?

The pork industry
In a fury.

The solution remains blurry.

Pandemic?
Epidemic?
Systemic panic?

With no vaccine
Is the answer quarantine?

Level five.
Will I survive?

Yesterday I ate some swine,
I swear, I feel fine.

Pig out?
Wig out?

Who's WHO anyway?
Should we listen to what they say?
Or should we just go outside and play?
