My Unhappy Feet

Ice back! Under my feet
In the water, I’ll freeze
No waterproof feathers
To save me in the slurry sea
My Smyley Island shattered into shards
Shattered into floes before I fledge
Ice age or melt age?
You call me emperor
But I am doomed to die before your eyes
By your hands
No hunting, no fishing
No habitat, no life
Annihilation, decolonisation
Satelite observation, but no conservation
Depopulation, devastation
Will there ever be a salvation?
The answer is with you humans
Cancel your carbon
Plant more trees!!
