[ WP ] '' It 's no use watering dead flowers ''

Man had struggled to breathe, gasping what oxygen it could from a cloud of thick dark smog. Pipelines shattered across every continent painting layers of the land with the reality of suffocation and fire. Those communities, that had avoided the dangers of the atmosphere and the deep earth, found themselves cleansed of life by miles of oxygen deprived ocean that had migrated south from the poles in the time it took to take one last breath. The flora had faltered and the fauna had fallen on this beautiful floating buoy. 
 
 A boy and his father stood in one of the last oasis left on the face of the earth. The boy turned to his father and pleaded: `` Please. Father, can we do something for them all?'' 
 
 `` Its no use watering dead flowers'' the Father replied.
