The Pandemic And The Sea

At the Annual Conference of Sea Creatures,                     

 In an urgent cabinet of the Redressal Department

Stood a Grouper in a mask and sneakers.

On one eye a Salmon had a tablet strip like a tent.

A Dolphin marched in with a PPE kit covering its rostrum

An unhappy Turtle followed with a syringe sticking up its bum.


'This is all getting out of hand or fin'

Said the poster at the entrance of the Coral door.

A smack of jellyfish coughed over the din                       

 A Red snapped back, "This is getting to be a bore."

The Sardines sandwiched somewhere in the room,

For lack of space, the Whales attended over Zoom.


'With these humans, there is certainly something wrong,

they are dumping more into our seas, ' said Mrs Shrimp.

A pandemic probably, but they should learn to get along.

Not dump every mask and syringe up to the Ocean's brim.

'You can't go on sweeping your dirt under water's cloak.

Not long, but some day soon it will all float and choke.'


They have always diverted their shit into our rivers,

Our ocean shores are dead and slick with oil.

They have tested nuclear bombs in our waters

and left their manipulative data on our Ocean soil.

This earth is 70 % water, but these little humans don't realise,

If the Ocean Gods burp, they'll just get washed away in a trice.
