Story Behind The Song
I remember as a teen reading in Readers Digest about Love Canal and what the dumping did to that community. I wrote the poem sometime in my 20s and put to the electronic track in the early 2000s. Because of the flint Michigan's water situation, deregulation, pipelines, etc., I think this is a timely as ever composition. We need conversation about how to preserve our natural resources and health now and in the future. A beautiful planet with growing numbers of people and waste. The artists who speak about situations and the people that come up with solutions are necessary.
