On Global Warming – A Warning
.
Reaching for the sun,
Stretching higher and higher;
The greatest funeral pyre
Turns, and burns the earth below
Baking, flaking the once-rich soil,
Sucking it beyond the boil,
Searing, tearing, ripping asunder,
Moaning, groaning with voice like thunder,
Cracks, fissures and bottomless pits
Open gaping maws to swallow bites –
Our drying earth,
Our dying earth.
.

Man’s ego
(Note the gender)
Misreads the message
Sets God aside
Takes over
In a mindless haze
Heads heedlessly
For the nearest cliff

(Irony or sarcasm – your call)
elects
(or what passes for that charade
a numbskull who denies the whole thing.
Bummer all round. 😦

Great one, but I’m opting for a ‘wait and see’… {trying to be an optimist}.
