The Global Warming Poem by Michael Silverstein

The Global Warming Poem

by Michael Silverstein

Locked in human-centric thinking

The content of our daily plays

The Mid East, Ukraine, and the markets,

Our focus of dismays these days.

Icecaps melting freakish storms

Species fall offs, floods and droughts

Growing worries, yes, we’re worried

But how important…most still have doubts.

When soon the process reaches end game

Our fool behavior, its course has run

The global warming tipping point

Has come, we’ll look and know...

We’re done.
