Climate Catastrophe
Sultry nights linger
long into the Fall
Humidity remains high
and bodies still
glisten with sweat
In the steamy south
rainy season is
alive and well
as boiling Gulf waters
scream for hurricanes
Questions unanswered
through a medium
of disinformation
Some burying their head
in the silt of the bayou
Denying the obvious
and seeing life
through a prism of
man-made distortion
and the art of the hoax
Turning a blind eye
to the soon-to-be
irreparable damage
done to our world
by man’s selfishness
