Bottlers vs. Frackers
(What is in Nestle's bottled water?)

"Give us your water. You're tired and you're poor."
Just like the Kochs, "We want it all."
Let Nestle bottle it and make a huge profit.
You're thirsty? Too bad. Now it's their call.

But who will win out and exacerbate the next drought?
The water bottlers or the dirty fuel frackers?
With your water gone, you won't water your lawn
Or have the saliva to swallow a cracker.

Water bottlers should be the easier to control.
Just plug up the hole from which they're extracting their fee.
Make them move to the coast where they'll find the most
Water for free in the sea.

Whether or not they desalinate
     is a function of what they put on the label.
If they continue with what they've been doing,
Drinkers won't have a clue until they taste
How boyant it would be for canoeing

Compared to the sport on a fresh water lake,
if any such lakes still exist.
While frackers decide between more pipelines to the sea
And Nestle bottled salt water which so far they've resisted.

Sympathy for the poor and the fracker? That's not Nestle.
Drink their bottled water no matter how salty the taste!
Their rationale for such a huge privatization
Was no way would they let any drop go to waste.
