Extinction

Some men who lived on Earth planet,
Said, “All of Earth's bounty, I want it.”
So each built an army
Said, “No one can harm me.”
Then they mined and they drilled
And they fracked and they spilled.
They bombed and they shot,
Burned a whole awful lot.
With heads in the sand
They laid waste to the land.
They poisoned the water
As each thought he ought to.
And with nothing to drink,
As you folks all might think,
The whole human race went extinct.
