Condom Conundrum: The Plight of a Planet, Poetically Speaking

What is the optimum number

of fish in a fish tank,

before there’s not enough air

for all to breathe?

What is the optimum number

of men on a planet,

before scarce resource start

all men to seethe?

Civil behavior turns to civil 

disobedience,

when there’s not enough to  

feast on and drink.

With only so much water,

air, and crop land;

man’s annihilation quickly

approaches the brink.

Technology can only delay

the inevitable;

the answer's not genetically

engineered corn.

The earth suffers from man's 
procreation;

to ward off its death man must

stop being born.
