bending reality
as they destroy lives
coming and going
in affliction,
infesting man
and wrecking normality
of stable lives
destroying lives, too
is CO2
a product of combustion
in our bodies
but also society's fuel
towards global warming
Coming and going
in errands and work
sitting at home
watching television fork
our boredom with spork
affliction or addiction
of ease greasing greed
burning cheap or cheaper
for needs of leisure yeast
projecting scenes
of normality
while infesting machines
raise thermostat readings
setting higher levels
for climatic dealings
in Spaceship Earth
wrecking normality
as we deal with change
half-yet-unseen,
if halted today
in global policy
stable lives
is society's fuel
in errands and work
and at home, too
with leisure feasts
in climatic dealings
