Another one from John from his Shorts and Shots.
Green Pantoum
In England s rain-swept, green and pleasant land
Where being green is very hard to be
As many choose to fail to understand
And thus evade responsibility.
Where being green is very hard to be
When politics and industry conspire
And thus, evade responsibility
To profit and to furnish their desires.
When politics and industry conspire,
Misrepresent the facts to power their game
To profit and to furnish their desires
Deny the truth and so apportion blame.
Misrepresent the facts to power their game
As many choose to fail to understand
