What's Cookin'

Put frogs in a water pot,
Then turn the heat up very slow.
When does it get too hot?
Do the frogs really care or know?
 
Does a frog cry alarm,
While his pleas the others ignore?
Cold gives way to mild warm.
Comfort frogs never felt before.
 
Does one of the frogs shout,
“Our pot is changing, mild to hot”!
Does his zeal create doubt?
It’s too bad frogs don’t think a lot.
 
How does this story end?
Well, the pot boils the amphibians.
How will mans’ story trend?
Will our pot boil, Homo sapiens?
