The final straw

Before an outburst

Of emotion.

A cathartic

Moment in time.

Environmental protection -

An urgent issue

That citizens and denizens

Must address,

Especially since

Earth is the only home

For biological beings,

And try not to choke

While sipping from straws,

And contribute towards

A noble cause

Without expecting applause.
