Natural causes!

Here is the news.

Today twenty two million people died

the cause natural.

Forty two million plants died

the cause natural.

Twenty million animals extinct

the cause natural.

Thirty hundred thousand

underpants, knickers and bras 

were hung out to dry

by natural causes.

Insects all died of natural causes.

You walked all over

microbes today killing them

now all stuck to the under sole

of your shoe

all dead from natural causes.

Now I know you are

all upset but that's natural

and I thank the cause.

Good night readers.

i was like the philosophical nature of your pieces, andrew.
and that's natural causes....

Your poem says it was added on november 14th and last updated on the 14th but its the 13th that's highly unnatural I knew you were from the future! what can you tell me about it what will it be like for me on the 14th? should I stay in bed? will we have hoverboards, flying cars what about a solution for hair loss? Tell me Andrew I'll send you a pre dated check:) He he I love your mind by the way I never hang my bras out on the line the neighbors gossip...
