RANDOM JACK POETRY HOUR: CLIMATE CHANGE
Global Warming Blues
A great wave of sweltering heat
From Boston down to Baton Rouge
Pounding people to the beat
Of the global warming blues
We knew it was coming down
We’ve seen this heat before
The coil’s come unwound
We fear what lies in store
Old folks in their old folks homes
Will suffer most of all
Except for those who live alone
They’re up against the wall
But everyone will feel the pain
When the power grid is lost
And all involved will feel the strain
When it’s time to pay the cost
You’ve heard from the talking heads
You’ve seen it on the news
You’re shaken and you feel the dread
Of the global warming blues
