Slow Dance

My land was carved in a slow dance
Glacier in, glacier out

Planet

The only blue planet, soon going to be barren

The greens we see, tomorrow will disappear

Warmth increasing day by day swallowing the life.

Shortsighted Downfall

Inoperable:
The spread of Climate’s cancer,
While men still suck cigs.

Smokestack Hypnosis

Frothy foam floating atop steaming chemical vats
Boils, becoming warm white clouds
Climbing up cold concrete columns,
And billowing forth from icy smoke stacks.

GLOBAL WARMING

 

Everybody seems obsessed
With all this global warming
Ice caps melting, oceans rising
Dodgy insects swarming
What with carbon footprints
The holely ozone layer
It seems that we are surely doomed
We haven’t got a prayer.

What it means to write

I can’t calculate the value of Pi or find the height of a ferris wheel
I can’t list the causes of global warming or dissect the parts of a frog
I can’t write an article on the global economic crisis
I can’t analyze the effects of population growth.

But
I can make magic.
Spin pictures out of words, bring colour into dull black.
I can touch and inspire.
Ignite your hidden emotions, give a voice to a silent scream.
I can change the world
Make the fantasies we work towards, unite millions in a cause.
