Ariel's struggle


Under the sea is where you will find her

Along with sharks, sting rays, and other terrors.

More than such species also stir;

The most frightening is human error.

 

Oil spills turn oceans brown,

All thanks to BP.

Turning Atlantica into a ghost town.

It was all just for the money.

 

All of Ariel's friends are gone,

Thanks to overfishing.

There is no one to sing any more songs;

Upon a star is what she'll be wishing

 

It is no wondering why Ariel chose Eric.

Such a charming and handsome man.

The horrors of the ocean have become only generic,

It's only common sense why she chose to come onto land.
