A poem about the environment with each stanza written in what I think is haiku (I think!)
I think that I might
eat the earth, although I know
it wouldn't sit well.

I think that I might
drink the sea, although you know
fish would die, sighing.

I think that I might
taste the air, although we know
it stinks of people.

I know that I must
smell mankind, but you know
the stench makes me sick.
