(Phyto) plankton

We're an indolent lot
Shiftless microscopic drifters
Here in the ocean (lakes, rivers and streams...) a million, billion, trillion
of us just float aimlessly and worship the sun.
We have no brains at all.
And we don't do anything except
procreate with promiscuos abandon
and generate most of the earth's oxygen.
And we have no advice at all for you diligent
bipeds who use your capacious intellects
to so industriously befoul the seas (and all aquatic environment).
For about two billion years we got along
quite well without you
and without us, you will suffocate.
