Her biome rebels, as orcas
sink yachts and man opens
his fat selfish mouth in shock.
Her waters protest, as sharks
attack swimmers and children cry
their wild-eyed tears in dismay.
What did we think, if ever we did,
would happen? Splay and exhibit.
Behold a new concept?
That which some call 'Consequence.'
Did not Newton warn you?
For every action, there is an equal
and opposite reaction.
Or did we hope and pray to a God not there
we be immune from physics and ourselves
and from true Lords in the water?
Back out now, but it's too late.
We can only gape in horror
as we face our wholly ourselves.
