Watch and Act

by Aussie

Mother Earth, face blasted black
Animals scurry under fire attack
Koala limps out on road
She carries baby, dead load

Heat so intense men stumble
Water blasted - houses crumble
Dams are dust bowls,
Roasted, bloated sheep stink

Tongues of fire telling tales
From mountain to the sea
Mother Earth roasted rack
Holocaust! Every living thing black

Day by day, hour by hour
We listen to our radio
"Watch and Act"
My country is dying
