Manatee
Florida is a giant sandbar
sewer spills
a million septic tanks
snakes and snakes
and waterways
one side a gulf flushed
down rivers
into the toilet bowl
stormwater runoff
mixes to create blooms
red tide blue-green
and brown algae
killing the seagrass
poor water quality
starving the sea cows
dying in droves
Indian River lagoon
count boat kills and cold stress
on the Atlantic side
but this is a final die-off
Florida is killing the Manatee...
