Sense Sonnet - Steamer

Oceans of Words

A world summit on oceans is
Prob'ly too little and too late.
Humans doing their greedy biz -
The oceans have suffered mass dire fate.
At cocktail parties humans mix
And talk about the oceans' plight.
Wherever humans - politics,
The far left versus the far right.
Meantime, the ocean very near
Further pollutes from the hot air
Of summiteers who have come here
To talk, but most don't really care.

Good intentions do oft break down.
So best intent - make humans drown.
