RANDOM JACK POETRY HOUR: GLOBAL WARMING
Between Helene & Milton
Between Milton and Helene
As we await the latest word
The most powerful we have seen
What horrors we have heard
Did you heed the latest warning?
Did you board it up and leave?
Will you hunker down ‘til morning?
Will your friends and family grieve?
We have heard it all before
The largest storm in history
Like the victims in a war
No longer a great mystery
Are you still living in denial?
Make a wish it isn’t so
Take an inch and give a mile
Every day the crisis grows
Can we ever make amends
For the decisions that we made
Is this how the story ends
With a bang and slowly fade
(My heart goes out to all those in
the path of Helene and Milton.)
