from all four seasons” the weather channel sez. that snowstorm is spreading across the rockies & n. plains; severe thunder in s. plains & midwest; storms brewing off the atlantic seaboard; santa ana winds in s. calif. well, we’ll see about that. but power will be shut off to 800k people tomorrow in n. calif.: “fire weather watch”: they don’t want no more paradises, see? & in the south, flash drought turns to flash flood, which is more familiar, like making water rescues once you’ve practiced them. & turns out hurricane dorian scraped the lids off six oil storage tanks: 1.5 mil gals spilt so far; & death toll at 61 w/608 still missing; but they rescued a dog from rubble! he was underneath the air conditioner . . . meanwhile the u.s. experienced 10 “billion-dollar weather & climate disasters” so far this year; & sen. eliz. warren has shaved 3 points off biden’s lead among “climate-focused voters” – i.e., the ones whose heads no longer reside in a very dark part of their anatomy (congratulations, senator); while across europe, extinction rebellion continues pissing off commuters; & this just in: “believing in climate change has no effect on whether coastal homeowners prepare for climate change” – just as those folks in paradise vowed to rebuild: climate change being an invisible creature – something that requires belief, like god. or air. me, i believe in air.

I'm a writer & teacher in Lawrence, Kansas who actually believes the scientists. I wrote a book of poems called Of Some Sky that seems to have something to do with all this. |
