Which drop of water will be the one,
That trickles down from the melting glacier,
Into the ocean
And raises the sea level enough to breach
The flood barriers of the City?
And which tiny pebble,
Freed from the ice will roll,
Knock two more pebbles to motion
Then knock two more which
Then move a rock which knocks
A boulder to roll down
Taking more with it until
Whole hillsides roll over
Airports, railways, roads and towns?
And which schoolgirl
Can move a few to join the cause,
Who then move more, and more, and more,
Until there are millions in the streets
Saying ‘stop your greed,
Mend the damage that you have done,
We will not let your stupidity
Wreck our only home?
