RANDOM JACK POETRY HOUR: CLIMATE CHANGE
Floods
Disastrous floods from Vermont to Spain
I remember a time when we prayed for rain
Now we pray that the rain will cease
A planet in the throes of a strange disease
California suffered catastrophic drought
A summer of wildfires erased all doubt
Now the temperature rises after heavy rain
How this world ends is becoming plain
Shame on all those who denied the change
By now we all know you were deranged
You loved your profits far too much
On global warming you were out of touch
So where can we go to escape the wrath?
Too late to alter our unfortunate path
Too late for humanity to grow and thrive
Though the earth will endure and survive
