Unpublished Poem I Wrote Upon Hearing of Santa Barbara Oil Spill in 1969


Santa Barbara

Down by the seaside in comes the oil.
The sand, the birds, the rocks to soil.
To man the millions is all he seeks.
Forgetting the sea, the fish, the leaks.

What goes round comes round. 1969 -- and here we go yet again, eh?
