Poem:
.
Huitain. French 8-liner with an ababbcbc rhyme scheme
.
the hum of Nature has gone
replaced by the engines roar
smog is something you can count on
graffiti and litter you cannot ignore
pollution is the only guarantee anymore
man will be the cause of his own demise
will the raven quoth nevermore
be wise, Nature will not give a reprise
