Shark fins soup is nice <br />But it is vain indulgence <br />Save the maneater <br /> <br />A solemn moment <br />In a mysterious glade <br />Another tree felled <br /> <br />Apocalypse steeds <br />Gallop through arid tundra <br />Warming sodden earth <br /> <br />Waste water buried <br />Into deep and dark chasms <br />Toxic fumes now reek <br /> <br />A blanket of smog <br />Turns the land into slate gray <br />A cold night descends <br /> <br /> Hummingbirds’ sad song <br />Plaintive dirge augur its loss <br />Evil haze spares none <br /> <br />Plummet like Icarus <br />Mount Apo’s regal eagle <br />Dead as the Dodo<br /><br />Eddie Roa<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/haiku-7-environmental/
