shattered sea
is it beyond belief
that beneath this shattered sea
our damage attacks the reef
that supports you and me
how can we not see
that our greedy reach
extends beneath the shattered sea
our sacred pact we breach
we attack the pact of love
intrude beyond the world above
into the shattered sea we shove
horrors of our rueful glove
how can we, once from the sea
who came to dwell upon the land
not hear or heed the urgent plea
how can we not take a stand
and to our aquatic cousins
we infect them with our sins
inject them with poisoned bodkins
turn away as their realm blackens
let us plunge in and find how can we
fathom what can we do, you and me
begin to make peace with the sea
join the plea to heal this shattered sea
