RANDOM JACK POETRY HOUR: GLOBAL WARMING
Heat Wave
All of Europe is on fire
From Madrid to Istanbul
The temperature is higher
No matter where you go
Everywhere the warming
Is driving through the air
Everywhere the harming
Is much too much to bear
The children are surviving
The heat is bearing down
Relief is not arriving
The waves are all around
You want to run for shelter
But shelter’s hard to find
A dash through helter skelter
An unforgiving bind
We all become believers
When children start to die
We’ll curse the rank deceivers
Who let us live the lie
The warming is upon us
The time has come to pass
Recall the ones who conned us
The flags will fly half mast
