A manatees complaint

It's manatee to you 
and I find you intolerable
because it's your fault - yes you,
that I am now vulnerable.

You're the one that hit me with boats,
and polluted my grass.
I have been smote,
and starving has just been a blast!

You call me an ugly mermaid,
even though you're the ones with weird feet.
Because of your mistakes I have paid
and my life is far from sweet.

But many of you don't know the way
I have been treated and to blame you may not be fair.
And to that I must say,
my friends and family are dying so I don't care.
