Stress, nerves, emotions – we are raw
We cannot know what lies in store
So we scrabble for a hold on news
Faced sadly by conflicting views...
Another Climate Change review*:
Extended talk-shop - what is new?
12 degrees - autumnal splendour
But is this normal – for December?
Forest fires pollute the skies
Energy costs now set to rise
The dumbing down of all T.V.
«Yellow jackets» on the spree...
The gap between the rich and poor
Has become one great and yawning maw
Taxed to the hilt, increasing debts:
BREXIT - as bad as it gets...
Where's good news? I cast round
For something wholesome, true and sound
But we hurtle on our merry way
With the 'self-destruct' key now in play!
