Ecology of the Plastic Tree

By Norbert Noecker

 

I think that I shall never see
A poem as senseless as a plastic ”tree”
A “tree” that wastes our nations oil
And doesn’t decompose at all
But only adds to solid waste
Until the view is a disgrace.
When burned it makes a fetid smell
Which makes our world akin to Hell.
To celebrate our Savior’s birth.
Why use the greatest fake on earth?
Poems are made by fools like me
But Satan made the plastic “tree”.
