RANDOM JACK POETRY HOUR: CLIMATE CHANGE
Extreme
Snowstorms from west to east
Fire across the Texas plains
The gods of weather have a feast
All remedies in vain
The weather patterns are extreme
In every state and season
From brutal storms to wildfire
We all know well the reason
The planet is not angry
The gods are not upset
But the polar caps are melting
And the wetlands are too wet
We’ve tired of explaining
To people who do not care
The era of humans is waning
Can’t say it isn’t fair
Of course it could be different
If we change our course real soon
But no one seems inclined
To do what we must do
