Did you laugh at WaterWorld..?
By Ch'erie
Did you laugh at Water World,
thought Costner was a creep
I tell you it's no joking matter
as our shorelines do deplete
He may of been quite fanciful
a mutant without a heart
but we're drinking recyled effulent
that is just a start...
Desalination is our cue
built by the year 2525
pardon me for this clich'e
"if Man is still alive"
Penquins they are choking
Polar bears drown and drift away
we are on the Titanic's deck
going down as the band continues to play..
At what point does Man wake up
When the final curtain falls?
or do we just keep our ipods in
live within fantasies walls
I suppose it's individual choice
shut it out, or let it in..
We can sneer as they did at Noah
Till the rains fall, wiping off that grin...

When the final curtain falls?
I used to wake up every day, filled with hope that mankind would finally 'wake up.' But I've seen far too many horrors in the last several years, that very few seem to care much about at all.
So these days, I've truly lost hope than mankind will finally 'wake up.' Now, I just try to enjoy my time left, and revel in nature wherever I can find it.
And although Waterworld was a little cheesy, I still watch it all the time, as I do Costner's also cheesy, but perhaps, prophetic - The Postman.
