WITH GLOBAL WARMING The tidal seas should properly flood if we billions could only shut off our rapidly depleting supply of this once free-flowing all natural fresh water, mindlessly pumped out of lakes, rivers and creeks, ponds, springs and wells, dams and reservoirs into water heaters, towers and tanks, then out through billions of faucets and shower heads to wash, drink, cook, drain and flush down to waste water treatment for multi-ton barges of sludge dumping at offshore dead zones, together with rising mountains of everyone's garbage landfill and swelling oceans of trash all now infect and obstruct our breathing, absorbing, life-creating biosphere that we fatally polluted with everything we use in ever growing numbers from economic bumblers such an ecocidal crime we lapse into rhyme at the failing health and vanishing wealth never to be restored by this growing horde like a raging virus of seven billion plus.
