An Oldie but Goodie

This is an incident that still angers me...I wrote this in May 2010:

           "Black Bayou"             

The Gulf of Mexico is now filled with oil.
It is a dismal place where no fisherman toil.
They stand in a line awaiting soup and bread.
Thanks to BP, the fishing industry is dead.
An endless flow of oil, it seems,
Is devouring rivers, marshes, and streams.
Dead and dying animals numbered in scores
float in the waters and litter our shores.
Helpless animals at the mercy of man
are left suffering, dying, time and again.
Unparalleled arrogance of a few
precipitated the demise of the Blue Bayou.
BP officials in their fancy suits
are living the good life while ignoring the news.
They fly in the face of God with no backup plan,
 no regard for the environment, wildlife, or their fellow man.
The oil's flow is left unabated.
BP's feeble attempts to stop it ,overrated.
Over seven million gallons of crude have now spilled
from the hole where these greedy vultures once drilled.
When will the catastrophe come to an end.
It's time to take action, no longer pretend.
Stop sitting back waiting for pockets to fatten.
To curtail the arrogance of man, what more has to happen?
