Acrostics for Flooding

Flushing, bubbling, rushing, gurgling,
Levels rising. Folks are burgling.
Oh ye weather gods, relent,
Overflowing rivers send
Down towards the oceans large.
Incidentally: send a barge
North or south - no matter where.
Gods be gracious, help us there.

Fluid, flowing, foul
Liquid, tumbling, growl
Of stalled engine, treed beast,
Of straining metal, water-feast,
Down it goes, civilisation,
In the sudden inundation.
No recourse when you hear that sound,
Go upward, flee towards high ground.

FLOODING
Flooding in Australia, downpours in Rabat
Look out world what's coming and look out where we're at.
Oil sheikhs getting richer and the bankers billionaires,
Out there in the wilderness, the poor have nowt that cares,
Developed countries grab, and take just everything they can,
I sit and wonder whether I should really care a a damn,
No – not when my family has the square root of eff-all.
God's wonderful creation is about to to go to hell.

FLOODING
Forty days and forty nights
Loudly fell the rain
Onto all the animals, and
Onto all terrain
Dreading what might happen next
Into the ark they go
Noah and his fauna tribe
God's chosen world hero
