your flame lights my world
I'd battle dragons for you
though some will be you

New fridge. Repopulating it. Same old fridge magnets, but they cried out for fresh poetry.

quite a pleasant fall
cool winds distract from climate
a fall less pleasant

Weeping has
Always been
A war cry.

Climate here's just fine.
But please stock food stores better.
I can't grow all that.

summer heat eases,
as does my resolve for change,
'til too late next year

Climate storms our gates.
We could mount a real response,
but let's close the blinds.

Unbearable heat!
Yet lesser heat sustains us
and our denial.

Night ship. Leaving port.
Ghostly in gathering fog.
Lone figure. Hand raised.

Crops quietly fail.
No Climate red line, I see.
On to famine then.

perhaps heat and drought
will, by magic, not touch me,
just cook my children

Hush, Climate Science.
Tell better researched stories.
Like those Big Oil tells.

You seek Climate proof?
If such spiky graphs aren't it,
maybe a flatline?

Hot days steal focus.
I crave time for OTHER things,
NOT climate change talk!

Every year at about this time, I try to write this poem.

Sycamore, July

Scattered on the lawn
Tattered scraps of parchment scrolls
Old and brittle bark

arctic thirty-eight?
well, at least not three eighty.
THEN we'd have to care.

Deafening Silence

Currently people surround
Yet I feel alone.
So much sound,
But my voice is though an ocean thrown a stone.

Lonely but not in retreat,
Music yet I do not dance.
I look pretty neat,
Yet do not feel engaged in your trance.

So alone,
Imagine if I'd be buried dead
Left rotting no thone,
And words all said.

(Made a fucking house of cards btw too)

Heat records shattered,
but fortunately not here.
We can still pretend.

unlike ostriches,
we DO hide our heads in sand,
baking hopes and dreams.

Your heart's sinews splayed
like the beams of our fine,
white house that was shelled.
You said I must leave this hell:
A country now burst at its seams.

This news is days old.
News or not, Climate matters.
New's the wrong question.

As Climate ratchets,
skeptics scoff, still asking proof.
Cartoon Physics shield.

When none remain to agree,
will that be finally Proof?

Dust we start and end,

Life's hourglass beauty.

"Crops will fail," I've said,
wishing it's me who's crazy,
and not the whole world.

I should ditch the future tense,
now that such tense truth presents.
