Killer Smoke- Choke!
By Mike Garofalo
Black skies filled with Wildfire smoke
From a Racing Tsunami of Fire and ash;
Putrid Smog, Killer Smoke- Choke!
Firetrucks loaded and ready to go
firefighters getting some hard-earned cash,
Black skies filled with Wildfire smoke.
Flaming chaparral and trees all aglow
houses burned to cinders in a flash;
Putrid Smog, Killer Smoke- Choke!
Just cut the trees down, heave-ho.
Obey King T, or FEMA funds slashed.
Black skies filled with Wildfire smoke.
People, pets, and animals all died below
the roaring scorching blaze so fast;
Putrid Smog, Killer Smoke- Choke!
Fires in the hills and mountains we know
are the West Coast’s nemesis at last:
Black skies filled with Wildfire smoke
Putrid Smog, Killer Smoke- Choke!
A Requiem for Tragedies
