Hatchlings

Mine owners. living in city penthouses,
import showman Monkton
who advises a takeover of the media
so to rule the world.
Through the blue chambers of Lovett Bay
glides a vast turtle, whose mother
was here when Flinders
First chanced the Entrance, so
she understands the rhythms
of the natural world. 
Decades on, what vapors
will her hatchlings breathe?
