North Dakota has another bout
of flaming taps
gas got in the pipes it seems
the fracking lying saps
they said it couldn’t happen
hot water alright!
except of course its flaming gas
don’t switch on the light
its clear the frackers hate this
evidence when it appears
because it raises hackles
and generates the fears
clearly the earth is hating
the fracking thats for sure
2 miles down the vile upheaval
that no one can ignore
and the fracking water
with its chemicals so bad
carcinogenic outcomes
the price for being had!
