Alternate Lorax Ending

But “hey” said the kid thinking real quick
“You speak of fresh water and clean smelling air
But all that is here is glumpled gross water
And smoggilous smoke
Thinking I can grow this tree is nothing more than a joke!”
The once-ler was taken aback
“I gave you the seed what more do you need?”
“What I need is a change to this misdeed
So I can plant this truffula seed
So come down right now
For I realize at last
I can’t do this alone
This task is too vast.”
The once-ler came down
And together they sat
For hours on end
Thinking of solutions to combat
Such an issue of water on earth and the air in the sky
That was just much too big for just one simple guy
They went to the town of the Consumigloos
and told everyone of these problems that were so overdue
people were sad
and ashamed of their thneeds
and realized they were all part of bad deeds
that created the smogulous smoke and the gupulty gook.
Before long
they rallied together to the truffula yard
working all day without any pay
working all night without stopping in sight.
They worked for a whole month and a half
to create what they called the purifligaft.
The glumped glu was pushed through through-turns and spins
and wheels and sneels
up pipes and shites
down keels and meels
and rushed out the other side
as the bluest most cleanest
water there was
the children could play in the river all day
and all of a sudden one day that next may
the Once-ler realized
Together, together, we'll watch the weather,
Now, and forever, never say never
A thneed may be what everyone needs
But a healthy world, indeed, is worth far more than greed.
