Advocacy Poetry
I matter!
Said the krill to the world
My world may be a grain of rice
But I have whale's right to continue my tale
Imagine if my pal
Palawan
Won
Amazon
My dream of tall trees
Flourishing flowers
Alien bees
Faroe
Too far from yes
Say no
Alas for Alaska
For raging mad men
Conoco go crazy
Philled up
With greed
Hunting bears that sleep
Is a sign of the weak

Ocean
Blue moon made of water
A heart
What does it say about ours
If we rip it apart
D.R.C
Dreadful restless confusion
Stiches for your country’s soul
Sent through underground lines
My 8 arms are your 2 arms
My 3 hearts are your heart
Why grip and rip?
We are underwater kin
Tasmania
You are mine
Said the world, said history
Lutruwita
Always minds spilling narrow
Hard for grass to grow in mercury
Fast mimic
Rapid repeater
Zooming speaker
Who will the ground and air talk to
Without you and your forest
High time for high seas
Treated to a treaty
Protection and mitigation
As global as our oceans

This project was inspired by the Rice's whale
51 wild Rice's whales
41 ft long, 5 songs
No long-distance migration
A shared Gulf of Mexico creation
Lover of warm water
Now black with oil division
Seismic surveys, platform, pipeline, drilling rigs
Threatening existence
Of fate rippling in greedy waters
