Blue is the sky, clouds make it gray
Clouds of dust blanket the Chinese sky most of their day outdoors in masks
The sky rusty orange, children already used to it
It remains something we ignore
It hasn't happened here
Our sky is beautiful
Except for the thousand-year rains
Every year
Change in the weather
All over the world
Heatwave in Alaska
The polar vortex in Milwaukee now
Choose your poison (Cars must be bigger)
Choose your poison (Relax industry pollution rules)
Poison is poison (It's a plague in slow motion)
This is the future your children inherit
Plastic as refuse
Wash up on beaches
Defiling paradise
Also killing birds
White is the pill you take to breathe
Red is your face from exposure to air
We are humans and humans create
And reproduce
And procreate
And build on floodplains
And build in forests
And wring our hands
At the floods and fires
