Fade to Black

poem by: Theresa Taylor
Written on Apr 13, 2017 

When the movie ends and fades to black
Into the present, the director has brought us back
Where oil has spilled all over this planet
It's gotten in our veins and become our choice energy habit
There's no special effects that can cover the damage
One day the black wells will dry up with a hiss and a fizz
But they say that wont happen until our grandchildren's kids have grand kids
So we push the script off on the next generation
As we keep _____ frustration
