Coastal Poem 9500


Mouthwatering Beach


So now the static kill works
Down to its core oil has quirks
Gulf oil spill, yet a thing of the past?
Crab, shrimp, menhaden exit their last


Preyed on us, in our trusting nature way
Big oil ran roughshod Gulf South bay
Corexit 9500 into the food chain?
Stand vigilant now simple plain


Last outpost tourist destination
Fishy water beach folk on vacation
Gulf south coast seeks its own restitution
Seafood full of oil, questionable constitution


Sugary beach shiny clean, nothing swarming
Hunker down now more global warming
Gulf oil for generations, Corexit spill
Fish crab menhaden swim a fill
